In this cover we can see the weight at the top with two main colours black and white. An contrast (whitle) colour skull image give an instant noited to the viewers and to emphasis the death. With the three colours, it may look like the level of stern form alert to death. The way Kidd write the name of author on the back of the book is interesting too. He has use the first three letters in the name of the author, not the full name.
