Editing Classic Era (section)

== Constraints ==
Due to copyright restrictions, some larger elements legally cannot be adopted because they consist of elements of Bark's friends' characters during that time. Certain elements created by Bark within this era can be considered part of the verse but haven't been integrated into the modern, [[pre-crisis]] timeline just yet. [[Sunset]], the original, unpublished short story that inadvertently launched the Caseyverse into what it is today, was written in an attempt to start fresh while returning to his original plans.

The only exception comes from [[Megawolf77]], whom Bark allowed him to adopt an older version of his character. However, due to the lack of current proof, at the moment, this will be presented as an "Expy," meaning "exported character." This concept draws from popular examples like Mickey Mouse, who is considered an expy of Oswald the Lucky Rabbit after Walt Disney lost the rights. The practice is very common within the comics industry.
