The Emily and Rosamond Debate 

Rumors began circulating amoung many blogs in December of 2008 that Cosmic Debris stole the character of Emily from the "Nate the Great" character Rosamond. Both Emily and Rosamond have long black hair and cats and are both strange. You can see the similarities in the images above. You can read Rob Reger of Cosmic Debris response here. The author of the "Nate the Great' books, Marjorie Weinman Sharmat, 80, and the illustrator, Marc Simont, 93, have yet to comment. The possibility of a potential lawsuit is still unknown.

Emily ~ Rosamond Debate 

Was the Emily the Strange character copied from Rosamond? Should the Nate the Great authors be compensated in some way?

Loading Fetching blurbs now... please stand by

Yes, the Emily the Strange character was definitely copied from Rosamond and the original authors should be compensated.

The_Party_Animal says:

I think it seems like a complete copy, but I am no lawyer. I have a feeling they will have to make payment.

No way! Emily the Strange is a similar character, but you can't copyright a girl with bangs and cats.
