Well, HPL himself put the Mythos and some of its characters into what
was then the equivilent of Public Domain. He died about 60 years ago
and his estate passed (by what some consider dubious means) to August
Derlith and, eventually, to Arkham House who currently hold it. Given
the vast ammount of Mythos fan-fic and knock on items around, I think
we're fairly safe.
