This image, Deathofsuperman.jpg, is being linked here; though the picture is subject to copyright I (Hiding Talk) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

  1. No free alternative can exist given the likeness of the character Superman is a trademark and thus protected;
  2. It is a low resolution copy of an individual panel from a comic book story;
  3. It does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the comic book storyline in any way;
  4. Copies could not be used to make illegal copies of the comic book storyline in another comic book;
  5. The image is significant; it represents the death of Superman, a storyline which garnered notable press coverage;
  6. The storyline in question is discussed within the article, thus using this image to identify the issue is thought fair use;
