| Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | This image depicts the character Medusa as she is portrayed in DC Comics publications during what is known as the early-Bronze Age of Comic Books, with art by Neal Adams.

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 screenshot of part of an interior page of a comic book. It is of insufficient quality to be used for the purposes of printed reproduction. |
