Summary edit

Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description	This is the cover of issue 1 of Archie Comic's Sonic Boom spin-off series.
Author or copyright owner	Archie Comics, art by Patrick Spaziante
Source (WP:NFCC#4)	This particular file was obtained from http://sonic.wikia.com/wiki/Archie_Sonic_Boom_Issue_1/; however, it is believed that this cover could also be obtained from Archie Comics, the publisher of the work.
Date of publication	29 October 2014
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7)	Sonic Boom (TV series)
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)	This file allows readers to visually identify the Sonic Boom comic strip. The comic series uses different art style and formatting, since it is a different medium than the television series, and for this reason, illustration would significantly improve the reader's understanding of the comic series in the context of the television series, highlighting the artistic and medium differences.
Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1)	As a copyrighted comic book franchise, no free alternative exists or could be created that would adequately illustrate the series in the same manner the official cover would.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3)	The file will be represented only once in the section of the article describing the comic series to which this cover is a part. Only the cover art of the comic will be used to illustrate and represent the series. The cover photo has been resized to a lower resolution and would be inferior in quality to official, marketed versions of the cover.
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2)	The file is not being used in a manner as to compete with the cover's original market role—it is solely being used in an educational article to illustrate the Sonic Boom comic series. As a low resolution version, this copy would be inferior to official, marketed versions of the cover.
