This image, Grizzly1024-thumb.jpg, is being linked here; though the picture is subject to copyright I (RossF18 16:59, 27 July 2007 (UTC)) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

1. No free alternative can exist given the likeness of the character is a trademark and thus protected;
2. It is a low resolution copy of a comic book cover;
3. The image was released to the media to promote the issue in question;
4. It does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the comic book in any way;
5. Copies could not be used to make illegal copies of the comic book cover art on another comic book;
6. The comic is significant

Grizzly as a playable character in X-Men Legends II. [1]
