I posed this question when this "parody" sticker was offered
for sale on this group a couple of months ago. Is it being
called a parody to avoid paying for the rights (presuming
the rights are available) for the use of Calvin's image?

It looks more like theft of intellectual property than
parody.

The creator of Calvin and Hobbs never copyrighted the characters having no
desire to cash in on such 'parodies'. Interesting, that is why you see so
many variations on this graphic.

I talked to a lawyer before I got these and they are
protected under the 1st amendment, much like a political
cartoon..It is not exact, it is not the coptwrote
shimano image.

It may look like that to you but not an attorney.
