Redbubble
Added 2020-04-02 14:31:42 +0000 UTCHi everyone, I’m sure most of you have heard that everything Good Omens related has been removed from Redbubble. It’s bad timing to say the least. I still have prints and charms on my Etsy, but for now unfortunately there won’t be anything more than that. I’m so sorry 😔

Oh! I hope, if it's a rogue confused lawyer, this may be reversed soon. I did love seeing your merchandise and others up there.

2020-04-03 00:50:20 +0000 UTCDoing an IP takedown on fan art during a pandemic? That's disgraceful. I hope it's resolved soon and whoever was responsible has a good hard think about their life choices.

2020-04-02 23:57:30 +0000 UTCSir Terry would be absolutely livid if he knew his fans were having their art taken down in the midst of a global crisis. I looked at previous GO art I've bought on RB and all them were taken down except Wisesnail. I would look at alternatives in the meantime... Meanwhile, I'll just go grab my pitchfork

2020-04-02 17:40:28 +0000 UTCI am sad about this and hope it gets solved. Because as far I know neither Neil nor Rob have a problem with this.

2020-04-02 16:43:56 +0000 UTCI'm so glad I bought some stickers before that happened. Guess the dude got bored in lockdown and had some time to fuck up peoples lives. I get removing like photos from the show but original drawings? That's just fucked up.

2020-04-02 15:49:17 +0000 UTCThat's really sad to hear. The passion shown for this fandom by the artists and fans was so heartwarming. There was literally close to none official Good Omens merch, so of course we embraced all the lovely works from creators like you. So sad to hear these news...

2020-04-02 15:35:24 +0000 UTCI saw that this morning and it's heartbreaking to see that all the gorgeous Good Omens art over at Redbubble has disappeared. There were several things I intended to buy on my next payday but that'll never happen now.

2020-04-02 15:21:11 +0000 UTCI'm so sorry to hear this. It is never a good time for something like this to happen but especially now.

2020-04-02 14:58:34 +0000 UTCThis is ridiculous. I thought derivative works were protected from this kind of crap. Or is it only in the US and maybe Redbubble is outside of the US? As a recourse, I do not know if they do stickers but Society6 has quite a bit of fan based art and may be an option if you want to reopen soon.

2020-04-02 14:51:20 +0000 UTCAwwwe, boo! I knew one fan's works have been pulled, but I didn't know it was across the board! Uuugh, I hate when lawyers get overzealous and show their asshole side! 😥 Neil and Terry's estates have always been so good to us about letting us play, so long as we didn't do something outrageously out of line. I'd hate for that to change. There were so many artists I wanted to get stickers from!

2020-04-02 14:43:45 +0000 UTCDo we know why?
Flywolf
2020-04-02 14:36:47 +0000 UTCSo it was Sir Terry’s estate certainly but Neil Gaiman just posted on tumblr that it might have been a lawyer from his estate acting without consulting Rob. I’ll let you guys know if I learn anything more!

2020-04-02 14:36:45 +0000 UTCi'm sorry to hear that. :( it's sad to us fans, who'd like to have fan-made stuff and fan-creators who have made them. also, there are tons and tons of different fadom merch there - are they gonna purge them all from redbubble? o.O
Ina_K
2020-04-02 14:35:49 +0000 UTCI don't think it will. Neil Gaiman doesn't even know why Redbubble is doing this

2020-04-02 14:35:16 +0000 UTCEtsy is still up as of now. I really hope it won’t affect fan artists there.

2020-04-02 14:34:03 +0000 UTCWhy what happened?
