Indexer Notes

The cover is based on the last panel of the Poe adaptation, The Black Cat which was drawn by Wrightson. The panel has three other characters that have been omitted from the cover. And the panel has a crowbar in lieu of the cover's bloody axe. There are a couple other slight differences.
