    At the end of Spider-Man: Far From Home, we were given one of the biggest reveals in the MCU so far! Bigger than Thanos. Bigger that the original reveal of Nick Fury. It was the reveal of J Jonah Jameson - and not just ANY J Jonah Jameson! We were rewarded with the familiar face of JK SImmons, the same J Jonah from the Sam Raimi Spiderverse! That bombshell got my Theorist brain tingling with ideas. Today, we are focusing on J Jonah himself and figuring out once and for all if he is a good boss or a CROOK!

      Batman has superhuman semantic and procedural intelligence. He is capable of mastering hundreds of martial arts, sth not even the greatest humans could achieve by the time they are 25 - 50 (which covers most iterations of Batman).
      He is also capable of easily outsmarting characters like Braniac, who has more raw intelligence than the sum of rest of the human race.
      So yeah, he def does have a superpower and it's not being rich. It's being smarter than the rest of mankind all together.

      @@Azure70 So it does get a little bit tricky without knowing if a WFH agreement was signed. In most cases, both parties will sign this beforehand to ensure everyone is on the same page.
      Even without that though, the law is in favor of JJJ because of one major oversight that MatPat did not mention (and I don't blame him because it's pretty complicated legal stuff, lol). Here is why: THE PICTURES OF SPIDERMAN ARE NOT THE FINISHED WORK. So yes, Peter is a freelancer who is being paid for his work, but technically, it could still be recognized as his work if no WFH agreement is signed. However, the pictures aren't the finished product, and this means everything in the eye of the law. Because JJJ is putting these pictures into his newspaper and writing stories surrounding them, Peter's contribution is considered to be a "collective work". And as MatPat accurately stated, he was paid for his contribution towards it so even though he didn't officially sign a WFH, once he took the money for a collective work, he unknowingly joined a WFH agreement. The finished newspapers are the completed work, and those (and everything inside of it) are owned by JJJ and The Daily Bugle. Therefore, JJJ legally owns those pictures of Spiderman.

    In the comics, Peter actually does make a lot of money from the pictures. However he uses it to pay for his aunt's rent and new photo gear. And since he doesn't always have important fights all the time, the pictures are rarer than we think.
    Because people would get used to him cathcing common crooks, only his fights with super villains or big gangs actually make the real money.

    On Halloween, I paint my favorite characters on pumpkins to decorate my house. Sometimes I take pictures of them and post them. To make these painted pumpkins, I get a picture that I like off of DeviantArt and use it as a template. If I post the picture of the pumpkin, I always mention who made the original art since I liked their art enough to use it for my own project.

    JJJ got the suit from ……wait for it………the Garbage so he doesn't technically have the rights to be hanging the Spider suit in his office so Spider-Man taking back his suit is entirely legal as the suit is his property that JJJ happened to come across after Peter lost his powers

  • @daniboypicazzo

    I don't know if somebody else has already said this, but I'll say it anyway: Although it was proven that J. Jonah was in all his right to sell those pictures, we have to think on something: In Spider-Man 3, Spidey IS a public figure now. Look no further that the key ceremony when he lets not only a bunch of civilians but also a lot of publications take pictures of him and Gwen smooching. Maybe he was difficult to catch in the past, but, by that point it's really easy to believe that those pictures are not from Peter's camera. And also, with the Eddie Brock example, it was a personal problem against Eddie what made him break his camera. So, in conclusion: Even if it wasn't on J.J.'s right sell those photos, we have no explicit evidence he actually did it.
    But that's just a theory, A Comments Section Theory! Thanks for reading ;3

      Good thought; however I see one major flaw to it. It's not that others can't get Spidey pictures at all; it's that they can't consistently get the same high-quality, most-current action shots that Jameson sells off after he buys them from Peter.
      That ceremony was a planned, singular event and Spidey was the guest of honor. It would be abjectly stupid for other media outlets not to have photographers present. Jameson also has no right to bar rivals from such a public event, so there was nothing he could do about that even if he wanted to.
      If people are willing to sell photos the others might be able to coast through buying those for a period if they find really good ones (maybe 3 days tops due to news cycles), however archive photos reach a point where they lose impact on the newsstand from a selling standpoint

    In Spider-Man 3, there is a scene where Peter goes to a big celebration dressed as Spider-Man where there are many photographers around.
    This shows that there has been an opportunity for other people to snag HD photos of Spidey.
    I feel like that was not the first public appearance Peter did.

    You know the main thing about spiderman? is, yes he's probably naive, he probably doesn't know he's being taken advantage of, but he also probably just went "oh well, I'm not in it for the fame anyway." He does what he does because most who have power, use it for their own benefit and most try to harm people and try to straight up destroy his city...Spiderman has always had a fairly straight set moral compass, he's a bit like Saitama in that way, He doesn't care if Jay Jonah is spouting nonsense, He pretty much went "ahh well I tried, he's the boss not me ohh well." and to be honest? People look up and cheer for him, they cheer for him because he's the hero...they have probably seen or heard of his acts of justice firsthand or secondhand...if anything the people in this city already know of Jay Jonah's libel and just don't care, like he's probably spouted so much he's crying wolf again...if anything people might subscribe to his newpaper because of the outrageous libel he produces...like he might as well be The Onion at this point, only he's being serious...in which case it's just kinda sad.
    In summary Spiderman just doesn't care if people hate him or fear him, he knows he's doing whats right in his heart, and considering that the Boston Bugle has always had Libel issues people might just buy it to point and laugh at it...like how some people buy National Enquirer just for shits and giggles...

      Actually technically all of the above. Under U.S. law fan art typically falls under fair use (provided it's different enough from an existing "official" art.) So in that scenario, Marvel would have the rights to Spiderman the character, while the creator of the fan art would have the rights to the art itself. He wouldn't be able to say the character is his because Spiderman doesn't belong to him, but he would absolutely be able to profit off of the picture parodying Spiderman.

      Have you read the comic Mat's talking about? It's She-Hulk Vol 1 #4, and it is hilarious from start to finish.

    Here's a thought experiment:
    What if J. Jonah is doing all of this with intent. Maybe secretly, he knows that Spidey and Parker are the same; but he [J] chooses to build Spidey's case as a "menace" to help avert any eyes that'd be pointed at Parker, should the secret get out. Sorta like an anti-hero. J does bad things to make everyone think that Spiderman is a wild-card that just causes collateral damage (Nothing like what "Peter Parker" would do). Also consider J's own capabilities as a photographer (or really anyone with two eyes and a brain)... It's doesn't really take a lot to piece together that your biggest cash-cow happens to be there at the exact same time as the hero in question... And just look at the quality and angling of those photos. Very~ well done.

    Well, let's look at a real-world publisher for that "Work For hire" issue you mentioned..
    Archie Comics regularly hires freelancers. HOWEVER, at least 2 of those freelancers in the past 10 years have legally sued for royalties and risidual monetary reimbursement because they never signed a WFH contract, and they won.
    And as quickly as Jameson "hired" Peter as a freelancer, it's doubtful that he even had him sign the WFH contract. It never happened in-scene in the movies (You never see him sign any contracts), one could argue that, no, Jameson does NOT have the right to freely distribute Parker's Spidey pics. He's just doing it and Peter is more focused on the headlines of those other papers than the fact that those other paper's happen to be using his photos without his consent.

    Actually now that I think about it, why DOES Peter only sell his pictures exclusively to the Bugle? Just because Jameson has rights to the pictures he buys from Peter doesn't mean he can stop Peter from selling other pictures to the other publications that AREN'T trying to run him out of town. He doesn't have ANY legal exclusivity to Peter's actual talents, at least without actually hiring the boy.
    The fact he's the ONLY one that can get these pics also means there would be a competitive market FOR his pictures, meaning he could negotiate both price AND terms of usage, including a kickback on any resell as well as input on the story the picture is used in.
    Peter, my man, you're a FREELANCE photographer, that means you can work for literally any and EVERY paper in town! Take advantage of the freedom, my guy!
