The whiny Law suit man Troy Parker strikes back!

Remember when the old Hillenberg got sued from that cruddy 92' artist Troy back in 2007? Well, Incase you don't know, Troy is at it again...http://www.amazon.com/Liars-Squarepants-Fire-Troy-Walker/dp/0615944396#customerReviews

*Walker, not Parker

It has one Amazon review back from March....I wouldn't be worried.

Big Meaty Claws · May 31, 2016

That is so sad lmao. I want to read that book just to see the stuff he makes up.

Supmandude · May 31, 2016

He wrote the 5-star review himself.

PhilipB · May 31, 2016

I can't believe he's still pursuing this. Doesn't he have anything else to do?

Why did Hillenburg get sued in 2007?

Grubby Grouper · May 31, 2016

Hillenburg should sue for everything Walker has left since technically he made Bob the Sponge in '89 in his Intertidal Zone comic. :p

*sarcasm* Yes, Mr. Parker. I'm sure that you releasing a book with a crappy MS cover and only ONE review after 3 months will help you against Nickelodeon, let alone Viacom, one of the biggest media companies there is.

I read the title as Trey Parker...whoops :P

Yet, another whiny attempt at attention. I don't think this guy realizes nobody knew of his sponge creation. He said he was a struggling cartoonist. That means not many people even knew of his comic's exsistance. SpongeBob caught on because it was put on a big network, and has heart, charm, amazing writing, witty humor, and is a classic. Sorry this sponge comic didn't catch on, but he don't have to write a book about it and blame the wrong people for its failure!

Also by his logic Hillenburg is still in the right considering he also made a SpongeBob-like character long before SpongeBob premiered.

Yeah, I screwed up the title and can't find the edit button for names. :(

Here's an earlier thread to find out why. Hope it helps. http://www.sbmania.net/forums/topic/20808-the-troy-walker-case-if-anyones-interested-in-what-happened/

I second this, although I wouldn't be keen on actually buying it... the man doesn't need money (seems like he's wasting it for the lawyers and to publish this book). May still order a copy just to see what hopelessness that the contents reveal, though.

Honestly, I hate that the man didn't get what he wanted (I feel his pain), but I think trying to shift away from the claimed "stolen material" and create something new with the main idea still intact (perhaps a new character to replace Mr. Spongee and his buddies here, story could *possibly* remain as-is) would be the better route to take than to get yourself in worse reputation because of a mere coincidence. I know how he feels, but I'm not pulling lawsuits because of coincidental character design (although I seriously quizzed Viacom about it out of fear... I'm so happy that they still haven't responded).

(Also, where's the bit in "Help Wanted" that tells the story of SpongeBob getting fired from a soap factory? I'd like to be linked to that extended version, thanks in advance. <3)

I bet he's doing this just to get some attention and some extra $$$.

Pordor4 · Jun 4, 2016

He's such a phony that he doesn't even know that the correct phrase is
Liar liar plants for hire.
He's probably faking it.
"Hey dude u stole my idea from some crappy comic I sold in 1992 that no one even cares about."

I like how the book has been taken down for sale on Amazon. :P

Yeah, and that's what made Troy lose the case. But that didn't stop him from continuing his whining and making this book...
