There is no copyright issue here. If someone wanted to publish a series of novels based on the 1983: Doomsday articles, there is literally nothing to stop them from doing so. Most wikia sites have their content released under a Creative Commons license, which states that as long as attribution is given the work therein may be used for any purpose, including commercial purposes.

Anyway, the guy could just call it anything other than 1983: Doomsday and still write almost the exact same story without copying the articles here word for word.
