Summary[edit]

Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description An image scan of a portion of a panel from an interior page of the comic book Who’s Who in the DC Universe #7 (1985) depicting a composite illustration of the character the Duke of Deception by artist José Delbo and inker Bob Smith. Though the primary visual identifier in Wikipedia articles about comic book characters may not be images from Who’s Who, this image is itself a very specific object of discussion within the article, as having particular significance in the publication history of the character. It is not being used as the primary identifying image in the article.

Not replaceable with
free media because
(WP:NFCC#1)
The software or website from which the screenshot is taken is copyrighted and not released under a free license, so creation of a free image is not possible.
Not replaceable with
textual coverage because
(WP:NFCC#1)
Because comics are a highly visual medium, it is sometimes necessary to provide illustrations to adequately define and represent the objects of discussion in a Wikipedia article.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) This is a low-resolution scan of part of an interior page of a comic book. It is of insufficient quality to be used for the purposes of printed reproduction.
Respect for
commercial opportunities
(WP:NFCC#2)
The use of a low resolution screenshot from software or a website will not impact the commercial viability of the software or site.
Other information This image is from the interior page of a comic book. The copyright for this image is most likely owned by either the publisher of the comic book (DC Comics) or the illustrators (José Delbo and Bob Smith) who produced the image in the comic book. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of a single panel from an interior page of a comic book to illustrate the copyrighted character 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.
