Depending on how far from "normal"/recognizable depictions of the subject matter the artist goes, it may actually fall into fair use or fair dealing: "Luke Skywalker with a lightsaber" is infringing but "farm boy with a laser sword" is not necessarily so. More relevantly, using the name of the show or photo of the actor in costume is right out, but "bowman in a hood" might be allowable, regardless of inspiration. | |
