Is it considered fair use to have screenshots, or character
likenesses, in a book as a descriptor or reference?

If you discuss time travel in popular media in the context of education or an essay, and use an image of Doctor Who as an example of a time travel TV character, that is fair use.

If you have a fictional character who is a time traveler, and you would like your readers to get the idea that this character is a lot like Doctor Who, this is not fair use.

If you are writing something like a role playing manual, and you have a category of time travelers or vampires and want to use some famous media stars as illustrations, this is not fair use.
