The Patent Beast™ Comic Books poke fun at staff members, patent examiners, clients, and even the author himself. If you, or someone you know, works in the field of intellectual property, this is the perfect book! You might also enjoy the Patent Beast Rings of Fire™ board game.

The Patent Beast™ grew out of Bob Fish’s law comics, which drew on over 30 years of real-world patent and IP experience. These comics combined education with law-themed comedy, using stories from actual cases to show inventors how patents work, common mistakes to avoid, and strategies for protecting ideas. Through this process, The Patent Beast™ became a symbolic educational tool, bringing Bob Fish’s knowledge to life in a form that’s easy to understand and fun to follow.

From the foundation of The Patent Beast™, Patent Beast AI was developed as a specialized tool that captures the depth of Bob Fish’s 30+ years of experience. The Patent Beast™ is the original educational tool based on comics and real experiences. Patent Beast AI is a small, specialized language model built using all the expertise from Bob Fish, designed to provide insights, guidance, and patent-related education. While Patent Beast AI is informed by The Patent Beast™, they are distinct: one is the original educational/comic-based tool, the other is an AI assistant.
