The logo, header, and cover text are all stats on a clear acetate overlay. The boards are joined with tape on the reverse side. Also attached is a bottom sheet with effects and graphics notes, and taped on the back is a stat of the original art that was used for the final cover, with a hand-written explanation by McFarlane.
