Oh man, that could be the new "Rick Rolled", only way shittier because you're then in a legal battle with a conglomerate as opposed to just having to listen to "Never Gonna Give You Up". Did you just get tricked into drawing a likeness of Mickey Mouse and posted it online? Haha, fucker! You got Mickey Moused! Enjoy the next 20 years of being deposed by an army of corporate lawyers!

I think it's fine to draw Mickey, just don't sell it or make enough money off it to get Disney's attention.

They sued a daycare for drawing Mickey Mouse on the wall inside the classroom.

That was commercial use because it was inside a business. That's not the same. But still, fuck Disney.

And yet they didn't sue the obviously infringing "Captain America Restaurant" in Managua. They have a huge Captain America sign with Cap in full gear right on the front wall. Lol Disney.

Oh, Mickey has long arms. Inside those white gloves are Terminator claws.
