Article	Imperial (comics)
Portion used	Only the comic's front cover is used. This image is only a small portion of the commercial product.

Purpose of use	This comic cover is used as the primary means of visual identification of the comic for informational and educational purposes. It makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone. The image is placed at the top of the article discussing the work, to show the primary visual image associated with the work, and to help the user quickly identify the work and know they have found what they are looking for.
Replaceable?	As a comic cover, this image is protected by copyright; any other image that shows the cover of the comic would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary.
