Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) This image depicts the character the Cheetah as she was portrayed in DC Comics publications during what is known as the Bronze Age of Comic Books, with art by Vince Colletta and Ernie Chan. Because the Wikipedia article discusses the evolution of the character across several different comic book eras, this image is provided for the purposes of context and comparison.
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 the cover 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 cover of a comic book. The copyright for this image is most likely owned by either the publisher of the comic (DC Comics) or the estate of the illustrators (Vince Colletta and Ernie Chan) who produced the 1977 comic book Wonder Woman (volume 1) #230. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of portions of comic book covers to illustrate the copyrighted character depicted; 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. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content and Wikipedia:WikiProject Comics/copyright for more information.
