Marvel and DC: Stealing "Super-heroes"

Cory Doctorow on Marvel and DC Comics trying to trademark "Super-heroes"
"Super-hero" isn't Marvel's property. They didn't invent the term. They aren't the only users of the term. It's a public-domain word that belongs to all of us. Adding a ™ to super-hero is a naked bid to steal "super-hero" from us and claim it for their own.
