English heavy metal band Iron Maiden, or their business company Iron Maiden Holdings Limited, are suing 3D Realms with allegations that retro FPS Ion Maiden is causing confusion and muddying their brand. They want $2 million (£1.56) in damages for the trademark terror. Ion Maiden is a pun on the words “iron maiden”, though whether it’s riffing on the name of the band or the apparently-not-medieval torture device may be up for contention. Maybe they’ll claim it’s an homage to Margaret Thatcher and we can just explode the world right now.
