Haha, this is kind of amuzing. The Winters brothers (Johnny and Edgar 
Winters - 70's albino rockers) are suing DC Comics, for violation of "Right 
to Likeness". DC Comics had a series called "Johnny Hex", and a 5 part 
series of this included 2 evil characters called "The Autumn Brothers". 
Johnny and Edgar Autumn are the offspring of a human woman who was raped by 
a supernatural worm creature. They are pale with white hair, and have 
tentacles coming out of their chests.

This link is an actual court document, and is slow to load. It actually goes 
in depth to describe the nefarious beginnings of the Autumn Brothers in the 
comic.
