YoungCodger (talk | contribs) (Added reference citation Note & links for Cover artist & Illustrator into InfoBox (wishfully). Edited note about wrap-around cover to be of "then-current" not "all incarnations" since it only has up to 13. Removed image insert of Full cover. Added Note of who Cover art is by & who Illustrations are by. Added Gallery with Front, Front with Spine, Back, & Full cover.) |
