America, 1904 to 2023. Four men wrote inside containers somebody else built: a four-panel strip a newspaper syndicate named, owned and could cancel; a children's book held to a word list drawn up by educators; a comic book made under a censorship code and a work-for-hire contract that assigned the characters to the publisher; and an essay posted by its author to a page he coded himself, with no editor and no house. Charles Schulz, Theodor Geisel, Stan Lee and Paul Graham each took a commercial format seriously enough to learn what it would and would not carry. This is an account of the containers, the contracts underneath them, and what happens to a body of work when the person who made it does not own it. Covers Charles Schulz, Theodor Geisel, Stan Lee, Paul Graham, United Feature Syndicate, and Marvel.
