`STRICT DEADLINE TO RESPOND TO THIS LETTER(cid:160)
`TO AVOID ABANDONMENT OF APPLICANT’S TRADEMARK APPLICATION, THE USPTO MUST RECEIVE APPLICANT’S COMPLETE
`RESPONSE TO THIS LETTER WITHIN 6 MONTHS OF THE ISSUE/MAILING DATE BELOW.
`
`OFFICE ACTION
`
`(cid:160)I
`
`(cid:160) (cid:160)
`
`SSUE/MAILING DATE:
`
`The referenced application has been reviewed by the assigned trademark examining attorney.(cid:160) Applicant must respond timely and completely to
`the issue(s) below.(cid:160) 15 U.S.C. §1062(b); 37 C.F.R. §§2.62(a), 2.65(a); TMEP §§711, 718.03.
`
`PRIOR PENDING APPLICATIONS (Advisory)
`The trademark examining attorney has searched the Office’s database of registered and pending marks and has found no similar registered mark
`that would bar registration under Trademark Act Section 2(d).(cid:160) TMEP §704.02; see 15 U.S.C. §1052(d).(cid:160) However, marks in prior-filed pending
`applications may present a bar to registration of applicant’s mark.
`
`(cid:160)T
`
`he filing dates of pending Application Serial Nos. 77360445(cid:160)(cid:160) and 77928583(cid:160)(cid:160) precede applicant’s filing date. (cid:160) See attached referenced
`applications.(cid:160) If one or more of the marks in the referenced applications register, applicant’s mark may be refused registration under Trademark
`Act Section 2(d) because of a likelihood of confusion with the registered mark(s).(cid:160) See 15 U.S.C. §1052(d); 37 C.F.R. §2.83; TMEP §§1208 et
`seq.(cid:160) Therefore, upon receipt of applicant’s response to this Office action, action on this application may be suspended pending final disposition
`of the earlier-filed referenced applications.
`
`(cid:160)I
`
`n response to this Office action, applicant may present arguments in support of registration by addressing the issue of the potential conflict
`between applicant’s mark and the marks in the referenced applications. (cid:160) Applicant’s election not to submit arguments at this time in no way
`limits applicant’s right to address this issue later if a refusal under Section 2(d) issues.
`
`(cid:160)(cid:160) Additionally, applicant should note the following issue(s) and requirement(s).
`
`DISCLAIMER
`Applicant must disclaim the descriptive wording “COMICS” apart from the mark as shown because it merely describes applicant’s services
`U.S.C. §§1052(e)(1), 1056(a); In re Steelbuilding.com, 415 F.3d 1293, 1297, 75 USPQ2d 1420, 1421 (Fed. Cir. 2005); In re Gyulay, 820 F.2d
`
`1216, 1217-18, 3 USPQ2d 1009, 1010 (Fed. Cir. 1987); TMEP §§1213, 1213.03(a).(cid:160)(cid:160)
`
`The term COMICS is defined as “comic book. comics, comic strips”. See attached definition. The Office has required the disclaimer of other
`marks comprising of COMICS for other publishing services and online comics services. See attached U.S. Registrations.

`(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)
`(cid:160)(cid:160)
`(cid:160)
`

`

`A “disclaimer” is a statement that applicant does not claim exclusive rights to an unregistrable component of a mark; it does not affect the
`appearance of the mark.(cid:160) TMEP §1213.(cid:160) An unregistrable component of a mark includes wording and designs that are merely descriptive of the
`goods and/or services, and is wording or an illustration that others would need to use to describe or show their goods and services in the
`marketplace.(cid:160) 15 U.S.C. §1052(e); see TMEP §§1209.03(f), 1213.03 et seq.
`
`(cid:160)A
`
` disclaimer does not physically remove the disclaimed matter from the mark, but rather is a written statement that applicant does not claim
`exclusive rights to the disclaimed wording and/or design separate and apart from the mark as shown in the drawing.(cid:160) TMEP §§1213, 1213.10.
`
`(cid:160)T
`
`(cid:160)T
`
`he following is the standard format used by the Office:
`
`No claim is made to the exclusive right to use “COMICS” apart from the mark as shown.
`
`MEP §1213.08(a)(i); see In re Owatonna Tool Co., 231 USPQ 493 (Comm’r Pats. 1983).

`Word Origin 81 History
`comic
`late 14-c., "of comedy in the dramatic sense," from L. comicus , from
`Gl<. komikos
`"of or pertaining to comedy," from komos
`(see
`comedy). Meaning "intentiona||y funny" first recorded 1791, and
`comedic (16305) has since picked up the classical sense of the
`word.
`
`"Speaking of the masters 0f the comedic spirit (if I call it, as he
`does, the Comic Spirit, this darkened generation will suppose
`me to refer to the animal spirits of tomfools and
`mcrryondrcws) ...." OB. Show, 1907
`
`Something that is comic has comedy as its aim or origin; something
`is comical if the effect is comedy, whether intended or not. Noun
`meaning "a comedian" is from 1619,‘ that of "comic book or strip" is
`from 1ElEi9. Comic strip first attested 1920,‘ comic book is from
`194-1. Comic relief
`IS attested from 1825.
