Cover Description

In a square illustration all in shades of green, four figures. The most human in the foreground, a bald elderly and thin figure wearing tiny round glasses and ragged clothes, clutches a large book with an octopus like creature (like Cthulu) on the cover. Behind him, a humanoid and bat like faced person with log hair wears a cloak and top-hat and carries a blade that disappears out of frame. Next, a humanoid fish creature grins. A frog creature at the back holds a lantern. In the background, the heads of two more of the frog creatures are visible.
