I agree with your comment reply to,Nick Ahlh...Jake. I agree with your comment reply to,Nick Ahlhelm. I too would like to know the entire truth and hear BOTH sides. But one side refuses to speak and even though Nick sounds as if he's trying to downplay Aztec's Copyright Infringement claims in your articles, 3 of them, I also wanted to know why comments are being blocked or deleted by the Latino Beatz site. I know my comment didn't say anything threatening or offensive. My comment asked, wasn't this done as Aztec of the City already? That was more of a question and not a comment by the way. Anyway, A simple reply like "No" or " I don't think so" or any reply would've been sufficient.I'm sure there were also lots more comments in a question form rather than a comment form that were also deleted. Neither I, or anyone visiting that link will ever know for sure. This leads me to believe that either that site is owned and or operated by team lobos close friends. This is not a third world country where the accused are just plain guilty, this is the good ol' U.S.A. were everyone is innocent until PROVEN guilty. The Lobo people have every chance to and opportunity to defend themselves and their property. But they won't do that. Even if they just commented something like " At this moment, we are not going to be answering any questions on copyright infringement questions." But no. Absolutely nothing. This only makes people, besides myself start to believe that infact there is something shady going on. Also, Nick, it's more than just two pics. I am assuming you have not read any isses or know anything about the story of Aztec of the city so I will educate you on the story. Aztec of the City is about an Aztec, a real Aztec from History, not a guy dressed up as an Aztec, fighting crime in the Barrio in Modern Day L.A. , The Legend of Lobo is about an Aztec Who fights crime in the barrio in Modern Day L.A. then there are also identical or near identical panels of the comic. Only 2 images have been posted so far as examples. Sure Team Lobo doesn't have to post their claimed Copyrights, but they did say they have them predating Mr. Baldera's own copyrights. So they put it out there and even though they don't have to produce anything for the social media or web surfers, they put the heat on themselves by making that declaration. And lastly, besides all of this, I too question why D.C. Comics hasn't jumped on these guys for using the character name of "Lobo"? Maybe D.C. Comics doesn't know about this yet? Or maybe they do and the Lobo guys have also received a cease and Desist from them as well. I wonder if Jake could look into that too.

Sure yes...Nick,In fact it's my third article. <br /><br />Sure yes I find their activities very questionable but are they guilty? I can't say that with 100% certainty. Maybe they never knew the comic existed, maybe there is more than meets the eye, but please know I am not certain anyone is guilty. I am just looking at the entire issue as I see how it stands now, and things are shady at best, but I'm no lawyer.<br /><br />There is team Lobo's truth and Team Aztec's truth, and somewhere in the middle lies the real truth. Ultimately this will go to court, and it will be for a judge to decide who did what, and who did wrong and that will be the truth. It may seem like a fruitless effort man, but apparently it is important enough for both parties. Because one is trying to raise funds for a movie/comic and the other side has invested over 20 years of his time into the project and has to defend his IP. In the end I thought it was an interesting topic, liked the subject matter and felt it was important enough, and still do. <br /><br />Thanks for your comment, and I enjoy the conversation.<br /><br />JakeBocashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17732178684341334661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6335413550074595032.post-73614942614947602962013-05-02T18:23:23.413-04:002013-05-02T18:23:23.413-04:00Jose, I hope eventually i can talk with team Lobo ...Jose, I hope eventually i can talk with team Lobo and ask them these questions directly they are entitled to their day, and to show me some evidence that this Tina Pierce had told me they had to prove they held a claim to their work. Each side can be fairly represented. Thanks for the response.

Also, I, and I am sure many other curious people, and fans who are leaving their comments asking about the copyright infringements are either having their comments, deleted, or blocked by whoever is in charge of Latino Beatz, and the Legend of Lobo fan page on facebook. Keeping the public and their circle of Lobo fans blind to the copyright infringement topic is to me, their form of self guilt and incrimination to what they are doing. Not only infringing on Mr. Baldera's creative property, but having lied to the comic book fans who purchased their Legend of Lobo book, and to all those who have already made monetary contributions in way of donations. If you are reading this,anyone from the Legend of Lobo creative team, or anyone over at Latino Beatz, When will you come forward with some honest answers? If not to Mr. Balderas, how about to all the people who are asking questions, the fans, the people who have had their comments deleted or blocked in an attempt to keep everyone in the dark with the hopes that you meet your expected monetary goal for your Lobo project? Anyone?Jose' Roberto Mesarinanoreply@blogger.com
