[edit]

If the image comes from a fan site, forum or news page, the image itself is unlikely to have been created by the website in question, and the copyright will typically be held by photographer or company who made the image. We cannot judge fair-use unless we know what the original source of the image is, since we might be competing with the original source (thus making it not fair use).

If you can find the original source of the image - please obtain a copy from there and re-evaluate it under the fair use criteria. If you have more questions - please ask at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.
