Actually, I read the original contract between Marvel and Fox for the X-Men. It became public record because of the lawsuit over Mutant X. In that one, it specifically stated that Marvel retained all television rights, but that Fox needed to provide consent for Marvel to use any X-Men character on TV. Obviously things have changed since then, so we cannot assume that this is the way it is now ... especially after the deal for them to make Legion and Hellfire CLub.
