Marvel or DC doesn't have to ask fan permission to reprint their fan commissionFrom Vu
THE WAR OF THE REALMS (George Perez cover) (Apr 2019)
Marvel Comics
I was under the impression that Marvel or DC had to ask the fan who commissioned the artist... but apparently, not true according to Robert F, who had his Jim Steranko art used, but was not asked or notified. Imagine one day you go to the comic store and saw your commission on a comic book cover and had no idea how it got there?
Legally, I guess they don't have to pay or ask permission... but it doesn't make it right.
I've read an interview with George Perez a long time ago, that he stated that DC and Marvel grant him permission ...

PHANTOM OF FEAR CITY #1 (May 1993) Claypool Comics/Boffin Books
Claypool Comics has some fun stuff planned for this year's San Diego Comic-Con. Here's the scoop:
Room 8
Saturday, 5:00 - 6:00 CLAYPOOL COMICS: 10 YEARS WITH THE STARS!
It's the 10th birthday of Claypool Comics, publisher of PETER DAVID's
Soulsearchers and Company, the vampire saga Deadbeats, and the sexy,
sassy Elvira, Mistress of the Dark. So we're throwing a party featuring
Elvira writer KURT BUSIEK (JLA/Avengers), Soulsearchers artists AMANDA
CONNER (the notorious The Pro), JOHN HEEBINK (Nick Fury), STEVE LEIALOHA
(Fables), and GORDON PURCELL (The Flash), CASSANDRA PETERSON (Elvira
herself), and MARK PIERSON, Cassandra's husband and the man who
supervises Elvira's appearances in the comics. We'll also have birthday
cake, previews of advance art, and gifts for all who attend (while
supplies last). GEORGE PEREZ, DAVE COCKRUM (X-Men), and classic
Spider-Man artists JIM MOONEY and AL MILGROM have appeared in Claypool's
pages, not to mention the first comics work by PAUL DINI (Batman
Adventures) and PETER DAVID's first creator-owned comics series. Not
many independent publishers have survived the last ten turbulent years,
but Claypool's done it in style--so come join the party!
