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.
