| Except for two or three, at least according to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, Meat Loaf now owns most of the rights. What the hell is this all about? He doesn't deserve them, and in my opinion he sure as hell didn't earn them. Someone better ask Jim just how he plans to do merchandise for the BOOH musical and potential film (much less those projects themselves, considering the wording of these trademarks). Jim, is it possible that you finally made too many pay-offs to get what you want? __________________ Word Mark BAT OUT OF HELL Goods and Services IC 009. US 021 023 026 036 038.
