Cover of Killtopia Comic Anthology, featuring a despairing man in a tech helmet.

The cover to Blister City
In the background in orange and pink tones sits a massive city, behind which orange mountains rise into a dusty orange sky
In the foreground 3 punks perch on the edge of a building, surrounded by litter and soda cans. The punk on the left wears a blue jacket that says die young on the back.

The text Blister City can be seen in the sky above the city.
