In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

message: The section on the Mad Hatter states that subsequent writers have adopted in some fashion the pedophilia of the character from this story.  However, the article on the Mad Hatter claims the opposite.  Which is true, and can we get some citations?

message: Article quotes writer Grant Morrison -
the story is woven tightly around a small number of symbolic elements, which combine and recombine throughout, as if in a dream: the Moon, the Shadow, the Mirror, the Tower, and the Mother's Son. 
Most of these  symbols are  linked to the corresponding card of Tarot,  but "the Mother's Son" is  linked  to Psycho (film). Is this original research (WP:OR)?   Do we have a reliable  third-party source (WP:SOURCE) for this reference?

message: I think it would help convey the nature of this story if Batman's moment of self-harm is noted. Without finding and re-reading my copy of the book, I do remember him taking a shard of glass and driving it all the way through his hand. It wasn't subtle. I think it was a pretty significant part of the book's re-characterization of Batman (something a traditional Batman would never, EVER do), and illustrated how far he had been driven to "the breaking point", which the article currently only alludes to briefly.
I've just done a number of minor clean-up edits, but I don't feel up to adding content without any consensus. I'll leave it to others, but I would add that it doesn't necessarily need to be a separate, tacked-on paragraph, an "item". It should fit into the plot description naturally enough. Or not, I'm not sure.
This is quite a good article, about a book I don't consider to be all that great.

message: I wasn't THE biggest comics geek in 1988 or '89, but I remember being aware of this graphic novel before its release. I'd seen a sample of the artwork (The Joker's big face reveal), and I was dying to have it. After its release, I remember haunting comics shops, wishing there was an unwrapped copy I could peruse, or that I could get away with unwrapping one there in the bookstore (as I frequently do now), or that I had the nerve to just shell out $25 for a copy, unseen (which I eventually did). But they were selling that first-edition hardback strictly shrink-wrapped, back then. It's not-uncommon practice now, but I don't remembering it happening before.
Was this the first superhero graphic novel to be sold shrink-wrapped? I imagine it probably wasn't the first hardback. But am I on to something notable for the article, here?
