Yes and no.

However regardless of its complexity (which isn't that bad compared to
some) it is how most real work copyright cases that people actually
care about work. Rather than single the single copyright we might
recognize on say a photo of some flowers you tend to get whole bundles
of IP rights. In some ways mickey mouse isn't too bad since Disney
have kept such a tight grip on him.
