And? Universes don't matter with what I'm talking about. I'm talking about rights to use words, and I used an example that happened to be Marvel because two different studios own the rights to two different series MARVEL STUDIOS doesn't own THE WORD MUTANT OR THE X MEN CHARACTERS but they made two CHARACTERS that were in it, CW might not own the rights to use the name "Green Arrow" but all the other things were permitted. They could also be not using "Green Arrow" because this is a different origin story than the comic universe (probably the more likely answer). Your point only helps my arguement of companies not owning rights to names titles anymore.
