This image is from a comic strip, webcomic or from the cover or interior of a comic book. The copyright for this image is most likely owned by either the publisher of the comic or the writer(s) and/or artist(s) which produced the comic in question. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of the cover of a comic book to illustrate: the issue of the comic book in question; the periodical comic book series of which this issue is a part; or the copyrighted comic book character(s) or group(s) on the cover of the issue in question; or the use of low-resolution images of a single panel from a comic strip or an interior page of a comic book to illustrate: the scene or storyline depicted, or the copyrighted character(s) or group(s) depicted on the excerpted panel in question; where no free alternative exists or can be created, on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law.

Fair use rationale for article PvP (webcomic)[edit]

I believe that use of this image in the Wikipedia article PvP qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law for the following reasons:

• The image is irreplaceable; a free analogue is impossible to produce
• Only a small portion of a copyrighted work is used
• The image illustrates a recurring theme in the comic which is discussed in the article
• The use of this image does not compete with the copyright holders' usage
