Cover of Queer Traffic: Sex, Panic, Free Trade by Jennifer Tyburczy. The top half features the title in bold pink text against a black background. Below, a shirtless person with a serious expression stands against a dark backdrop, with their torso under magenta and blue lighting. They hold a large, dirty shovel in one hand and a vampire-like mask in the other. Their face is streaked with red paint resembling blood.
