The cover features the chilling SK influenced art by horror master Bernie Wrightson. Previously, Wrightson had drawn the poster for the Stephen King-penned horror film Creepshow, as well as illustrating the comic book adaptation of that film.

This issue, besides the nostalgia inspiring tv schedules, also features several intriguing articles in light of revelations in the 2020's. From glowing white Danny in pj's at contents page: "I.
