Garbage Pail Kids Themed Gig Poster - Copyright Question

[Johnbarnesiii]

Hi guys,

I am interested in digitally designing/illustrating a gig poster for my band in Photoshop, in the style of a Garbage Pail Kids card. Similar to a GPK ‘Battle of the Bands’ card, but using our band name done in GPK style, instead of the actual GPK logo.

Was wondering if there would be any copyright issues with this, if we sold the poster on our band’s online store (as long as we didn’t use the GPK logo)? No GPK logo would be used, only the style of the logo and card, as a parody.

Thanks in advance for any help!
