::: I guess my only note is that a front cover is a specific thing. It is designed, by its nature, to be seen by the public without the exchange of money. Back in the day, you could easily walk up to a comic stand, look at the full front page of a periodical, and leave without spending a single dime. Because of that, I do not humor any argument that uploading images of the front covers of these publications is copyright infringement, the ''point'' is that we can look at these covers. It's no different to someone saying that uploading the cover of [[DWM 555]] should be banned because ''someone owns the rights to that picture of Tom Baker!'' (This debate is mostly over, I'm sure opinions like this have already been voiced) [[User:OttselSpy25|OS25]][[User Talk:OttselSpy25|🤙☎️]] 23:01, 1 February 2024 (UTC) | ::: I guess my only note is that a front cover is a specific thing.

::::Does such a market currently exist? Were one to exist in the future, would the hypothetical person who wished to see the front of the magazine be drawing views away from that market place by viewing these frontpieces here instead? Would we offer the option to purchase the whole magazine here, while the market does? These questions are all relevant to this comparison, it's not quite as cut and dry as is being suggested.
