To be candid, I am for Copyright laws. They are their to make sure no one takes the story of say, Batman, and him turn into something he is not. I would hate to see the Cape Crusader do anything else besides fighting evil doers in Gotham city. Maybe the occasional cross-over story would be cool with Superman or other DC heroes, but I have a very specific way I want to see my Batman.
That's not to say I can't see someone else taking Batman and making him do something more interesting, or making him better the way he is now, but at the same time if someone desperately wants to create these stories then they should go work at DC. True, sometimes people aren't so lucky to get opportunities to work for DC, but hey, that's life. I do believe we are all here for a reason and if that reason is something other than what we think, that is alright. People have this problem that if they believe they have a certain purpose in life and they end up not fulfilling that purpose, then that is wrong. They should learn to know that is okay. Failures can lead to successes, but only if we let them.
In sum, yes, we need copyright laws to protect artists work for being stolen. People who want to improve upon an already existing media should seek employment with whatever company owns the rights. If they don't get that opportunity, they should learn that that is alright in the long run.
