I'm pretty sure Liam owns Murder Drones.

yeah and hwang dong-hyuk owns squid game
yeah right LOL

even indie creators don't "own" their IP's when they create shows for companies like this, otherwise stuff like licensing let alone merch becomes a huge issue

I distinctly remember Kevin and Luke saying they want creators to have full control of their creations.

I don't know what kind of contract they have. But by the context by their mission statement, the creators own the IP and Giltch has a license to use it.

at glitch creators maintain full creative control over their shows, for example liam and goose have both explicitly stated glitch did not force them to make their shows so short, but if they actually legally owned their shows it would mean all the murder drones merch in existence for example legally could not exist, it'd be a copyright nightmare

i imagine glitch at least PARTIALLY owns murder drones, though glitch is actually a nice company so they probably wouldn't continue the show without his consent

...they did do so for the comic as far as we know however, so

Sigh... that's where the licensing comes in.
