Atlas wins exclusive rights to Spiderman, Ben 10 cartoon characters

Sri Lanka’s leading stationery manufacturer, Atlas, recently obtained the exclusive licence to publish images of several popular children’s cartoon characters and superheroes on its range of stationery products.

Atlas, the company said, is now entitled to brand its products with images of Marvel Superheroes, including Wolverine, Thor, Iron Man the First Avenger and the ever popular Spiderman. The company also obtained rights for the Ben 10 range of images, including Ben 10, Ben 10 Alien Force and Ben 10 Ultimate, as well as children’s cartoon The Power puff Girls, the company statement added.

“The company is legally entitled to use these images, in contrast to the number of stationery products carrying illegal pirated images that are currently flooding the market”, noted Atlas COO/Director Nishantha Hennadige.

“Importers, distributors, wholesalers and retailers stocking and selling these pirated images are committing an offence and are punishable by law”, he added. Mr. Hennadige noted that customers buying Atlas products carrying these images can be confident that they are purchasing genuine and quality branded products, rather than low quality illegal products.
