* Speaking of Music/TheBeatles' breakup, 1970 saw the release of three dueling solo albums by former bandmates: ''Music/McCartney'', ''Music/JohnLennonPlasticOnoBand'', and Music/GeorgeHarrison's ''Music/AllThingsMustPass''. John and Paul's albums featured a stripped-down sound and emotionally raw songwriting, with ''[=McCartney=]'' featuring an almost DIY aesthetic, while George's album was an elaborately produced three-disc set clearly intended as a tour-de-force. Despite the differing sounds, each musician explores new personal ideas in an attempt to find his own independent voice as an artist. [[note]]Music/RingoStarr likewise released a solo album in 1970, but ''Sentimental Journey'' was a laid-back CoverAlbum of Big Band standards with no originals, so it's harder to make the case for it as a dueling work.[[/note]]

* It may seem strange, but for a while in the eighties, ComicBook/GreenLantern and ComicBook/IronMan were seen as this, even internally. In the planning phases for ComicBook/CrisisOnInfiniteEarths, DC even considered revamping or replacing Hal Jordan to ''avoid'' comparisons to Iron Man, so it was a prevalent enough sentiment to influence the company's decisions at the time. The revamp would eventually take place with ''ComicBook/EmeraldTwilight'', but it seems the rivalry wasn't forgotten, since the two were merged into the ComicBook/{{Amalgam|Universe}} hero, Iron Lantern.

* The 1990s had a rare intra-franchise example between ''Literature/TheThrawnTrilogy'' and the concurrent ''Dark Empire'' comic book series written by Tom Veitch. Both series were conceived as immediate sequels to the Original Trilogy, and although ''Dark Empire'' was conceived first, ''Heir to the Empire'' was released a few months earlier. Zahn was purportedly dismissive of ''Dark Empire'' and refused to incorporate references to the storyline into his Thrawn books, but since both series were set in the same universe, Veitch's comic had to be pushed forward six years in the in-universe timeline to accommodate the events of Zahn's novels. The fact that both Zahn and Veitch had many of the same basic ideas caused some incongruities (e.g. both authors wanted to write a major plot point of Han and Leia having Force-sensitive children, but the twins Jacen and Jaina are only briefly seen in ''Dark Empire'') that had to be ironed out in later works. Ultimately, while ''Dark Empire'' made a big splash initially due to its great artwork and crowd-pleasing elements, the runaway success of ''Heir to the Empire'' ensured that Zahn's trilogy would become much more influential to the formation of the Star Wars Expanded Universe (both the [[Franchise/StarWarsLegends old]] and the [[Franchise/StarWarsExpandedUniverse new]]).

* In another case of Marvel doing this within itself, 2002's U-Decide event, where a reboot of Creator/PeterDavid's run on ''ComicBook/{{Captain Marvel|MarvelComics}}'' and the infamous ''ComicBook/{{Marville}}'' were spawned because of an argument David had with the latter's equally-infamous writer, then-Marvel president Bill Jemas. Lesser known, to the point that both Creator/LewisLovhaug, during his reviews of ''Marville'' for ''WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall'', and [[Website/SFDebris Chuck Sonnenburg]], during his ''[[UsefulNotes/TheGreatComicsCrashOf1996 The Rise and Fall of the Comics Empire]]'' series, didn't even bother to mention it, is the third title in this stunt, ''ComicBook/UltimateAdventures'', a parody of Batman set in the ComicBook/UltimateMarvel universe. For the record, not only did David's ''Captain Marvel'' win, but ''Marville'' came in ''dead last'' in sales, even against ''Ultimate Adventures'', though as stated, ''Ultimate Advetures'' is often forgotten.

** '''Implementation:''' Lego began marketing interlocking bricks as a construction toy as early as 1947, with the modern-style "stud and tube" brick sold in 1958; sales began in North America in the early 1960s, handled initially through Samsonite, but later began marketing on its own. Rival companies, most notably Mega Bloks, introduced their own construction-type toys as early as the late 1960s, typically selling their sets at a lower cost; Mega Bloks was acquired by Mattel in 2014. Many of the rival brands are sold in discount stores and stores such as Walgreen's, while Lego often commands a presence at the national superstore chains. A listing of Lego's numerous rivals, along with reviews of recent products from these companies, [[http://www.1000steine.com/brickset/miscellaneous/clonebrands_v1.3.pdf may be found here]]. (Incidentally, the only genre Lego has not delved into, which rival manufacturers have, is military/warfare-type sets; this was a conscious decision by Lego, although some consumers have created their own after-market sets using Lego products.)

Points in ''All-New Wolverine's'' favor are the title, and the fact that Laura is actively using the Wolverine name. Point's in ''Old Man Logan's'' favor the are that it stars ''a'' Logan, and has generally more mature and violent content.
