I feel like after a significant amount of time — maybe 25 years — it can be OK. I’ve enjoyed stories in the James Bond and Philip Marlowe series done by other authors, even though they’re never really the same as the originals. Both of those series only came decades later, and that helps. By then it’s not about keeping the gravy train rolling, more about fond homage.
