Whether it's allowed on a wiki or another doesn't mean anything. What I am saying is that you are allowed to create derivative, non-profit work, which fanfiction is. From the moment you start commercializing it or start writing it the same way as DC does, now that's copyright infringement. You haven't crossed that line and you seem far from it. As for Spencer, you can't blame him right now, because yes, the idea of the storyline, the characters, et cætera have been taken from RSR, but you, yourself, have taken a lot from DC, so what Spencer is currently doing is a derivative work of a derivative work&mdash;a fanfiction of your fanfiction, if you prefer. At the moment he starts writing the same thing as you (I'm not sure if you can consider the characters included as an infringement, but it just might,) then you can consider it to violate your derivative property. Your fanfiction is your property, but its content is owned by DC, Netherrealm and MARVEL. His fanfiction is his property, for now, but its content is owned by you (to a small extent,) DC, Netherrealm and MARVEL.

One thing it is important that you always remember, all the time: You don't copyright ideas, you copyright the expression of the ideas.

And yeah, sorry for that mistake, I meant Spencer. I know he hasn't done much, but what he is doing is even more severe, on a copyright level.

If you want to learn a little bit about copyright, you can check Leonard French on YouTube, he's a copyright atorney, and he's started making videos about that recently, so that's cool.
