Sorry, We Tried.

That Time Someone Stole Howard the Duck


Listen Later

In this quacking episode of Sorry, We Tried, we're talking about one of the most bizarre cases of intellectual property theft ever. Back in the 90s, an ex-Marvel Comics writer out for vengeance literally stole the character of Howard the Duck right from under the noses of Marvel executives in one of the most intricately-planned acts of trolling ever committed. This wild, wild tale involves an elf with a gun, cyborgs, clones, lawsuits, and even a presidential campaign. Buckle up, because this story is one you have to hear to believe. 

Also in this episode, Harrison is only about half-listening. Robby gives an overly-detailed Rick and Morty recap. Spencer's toilet bowl gets permanently stained blue. And the guys discuss ways to make Robby quit his terrible running bit.
