To be confirmed, but this sounds a bit like how Disney decided they didn’t need to pay any more royalties to people who wrote Star Wars novelizations and original novels.
Like, “you don’t have a contract with us, you had one with George Lucas before we bought Star Wars, it didn’t transfer.” Very shady, and probably a lot easier to pull when you’re a huge corporation against a small creator.

Probably true, but who’s going to tell Disney’s legal department?
Me
Best of luck to you.
OK, we’ll hold a collection for your funeral.

Yeah, that’s how I feel about that too, of course. But somehow, looks like Disney got to have the cake and eat it too.
I’ve been lead to believe that Disneys legal department is feared even among other giant corporations.
They’ve been doing shady business for a long time and don’t fuck around, I guess.
