Would he RATHER just have everyone at Sega and Archie pretend that everything he ever did NEVER existed?! Because if he keeps doing this that's EXACTLY what is going to happen.
I'd say he's due for a psyche evaluation. It's so sad he's dragging down so much with him.

Yep, because everyone who bought Sonic Mega Collection clearly bought it for the collection of comic covers and the readable copy of Sonic Firsts and not for the videos games on the disk. The games were just the bonus features obviously.
Go fuck yourself Ken.

Well... I don't know what to say... he's just living in his own happy world. Too bad he doesn't know he's living in a wrong world. 
And does he ever, I mean ever know that the Mega Collection was release ten years ago?... What else he's going to sue the Sega Company for? Maybe just to take over?!!! 
Jeez...

Does Penders realize that anything you invent to be used by a company while employed by that company is actually thier intellectual property?
I mean if you invent a rocket while working at tacobell that's different. But if you invent a faster way to cook meat and USE it at your Tacobell that meat cooker is actually Tacobell's intellectual property and not yours.
Technically every character he invented while under Archie is ARCHIE's

Which is what we hear. But even on Penders twitter thing above, it is to close to the case for anyone to actually be able to discuss what happened. The only thing we know for sure is Archie has chosen to drop all of his characters.

This is like watching a train wreck in slow motion. Penders has already made impact and is still trying to go further. His career is essentially over now, no studio will ever take the risk of working with him.
That was a brilliant analogy, add a couple of kittens on the rail (our beloved franchise) and it's perfect.

I'm just waiting for Ken to take his lawsuit towards Paramount Pictures and DC Comics and try to sue them for the Star Trek comics he worked on.
Or how about Ken trying to say that because he painted up they craptastic cover for the Shout!Factory DVD set of SatAM, that by doing that, he is now connected to the show and demands royalites for every single set that was sold. Or maybe he is just THAT batshit insane he'll say the show was based off his run on the comic.

You know he's gonna find a way to do that now

Hes just getting more insane as time goes by, hes lost all credibility. He'll never work again professionally. That in of itself is a huge loss.

I can just imagine Ken Penders' lawyer is very embarrassed right now.
Lawsuit #1 Penders vs. ACP.
"Look, you created those characters for THEM to use. The contract you signed said so! Besides, most of them look like Knuckles anyway. Sure they should have compensated you for the reprints but two wrongs don't make a right."
Lawsuit #2 Penders vs Bioware/EA.
"Okay, you got lucky that time, but you're really pushing your luck now. Why would you sue people who you are trying to pay homage to you? I mean you've paid homage to OTHER things and they didn't try to sue you."
Lawsuit #3 Penders vs SEGA.
"It was just BONUS content! The whole game didn't revolve around it. Besides, that was ten years ago, the statute of limitations have already expired!"
Lawsuit #4 Penders vs Paramount Pictures.
"But they haven't done ANYTHING! YOU don't even know why you're trying to sue them!"
Lawsuit #5 Penders vs the Hurst estate.
"It's not HIS fault the film didn't receive the green light, it's YOURS! Also it was not your idea, it was HIS. Oh and news flash, he's been DEAD for years now!"
Lawsuit #6 Penders vs SHOUT! factory.
They ALREADY PAID YOU FOR IT!
Lawsuit #7 Penders vs house cat.
"How can that cat be stealing your work!? Cats cannot make those kinds of decisions!...........LOTS of cats look like that!!! How can that cat be stealing Hershey's design?! Heck, YOU had a cat that looked like that! THAT'S WHERE THE IDEA CAME FROM!
Lawsuit #8 Penders vs Knuckles Plush.
"How stupid can you get?!?! A Knuckles plush cannot make decisions!.......No, the reason why your kids are missing is because YOU were not watching them!......A Knuckles plush is NOT A LEGAL GUARDIAN!!!! I don't care that he's the guardian of the master emerald, THAT'S A FICTIONAL STORY!!!"
Lawsuit #9 Penders vs General Motors.
"IT'S NOT THE CAR'S FAULT THEY'RE DEAD AND INJURED IT'S YOURS!!!.....CRUSE CONTROL DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY!!!.....YOU KNOW WHAT?!?! FUCK THIS!!! YOU'RE AN IRRESPONSIBLE JACKASS!!!!! I SAID YOU'RE AN IRRESPONSIBLE-"
Lawsuit #10 Penders vs his ex-attorney.

He didn't get lucky, Louis. He knew from the beginning that he was going to win the court case. That's why he was so confident about the whole thing while we were all scratching our heads, wondering what he was thinking.
As for the royalties, what are you saying precisely? That he should have said, "Well, I'm being cheated out of the money I'm owed but never mind! It isn't like I need to eat or anything crazy like that! And I'm sure that the bills will pay themselves!" There are genuine reasons to dislike Ken Penders as a person but that really isn't one of them. I'm not saying what he did was wise in the long run, simply that I can understand why he did it.
What was the point of all the other stuff in your post? You've resurrected a topic which has lain dormant these past few weeks just to mock Penders for the sake of mocking him? Were you bursting with the need to sneer vindictively at someone whose actions have no impact at all upon your life?
