Fair use rationale

This is being linked at the The Governor (The Walking Dead) article on the English Wikipedia, and although it is subject to American copyright laws, I believe that it is covered by fair use laws because:

It is of web resolution, i.e. it is of a lower quality than the original copy
It clearly identifies the subject in question
It is accompanied by commentary on the episode and character
It features a significant character
AMC, Robert Kirkman or Image Comics does not lose any rights to sell and advertise the show
