Respect for
commercial opportunities
(WP:NFCC#2)
Composition is transformative to original use.
Comic books were not sold but given free to customers. Issues were not republished and copyright owners have no intent to republish, either for sale or business promotion.
The last book was published by a different company, no longer affiliated with Big Boy, and commercial opportunity is not possible.
Other information This composition is transformative (fair use, factor one).
Being a composition, the original sized posted image (746 x 541) should be maintained. Each individual cover (186 x 270) is similar in size or smaller than other copyrighted comic book cover art at Wikipedia (Examples for comparison: Superman #1 (300 × 423), Beano (300 × 413), Fantastic Four (233 × 351), The Flash (300 × 440).)
