A hulking, grotesque, shadowy figure with glowing, hollow eyes and razor-sharp claws is depicted clawing its way out of a crumbling mountain of ancient, dusty books. The swirling fog that envelops the figure glows faintly green, giving a ghostly aura. The background is an eerie, near-empty decrepit library bathed in dim, flickering, reddish-black light. Cobwebs hang from the corners of the shelves, and faint silhouettes of eerie faces can be spotted in the shadows. Splashed across the top, the title 'Bound in Horror' is jagged and dripping like fresh blood. The bottom features a distressed, psychedelic green stripe, which contains the tagline 'Read if you dare!' in small, cracked font. A gritty 'Restricted Contains Frights' label is visible in the bottom corner, resembling a retro VHS tape warning sticker. The artwork is intentionally textured to mimic wear and tear, with a grainy filter and faint creases running across the design to capture a vintage, aged look.

Bound in Horror: The paper nasties collection

A powerful, intense depiction of an elegant adult Black woman in her late thirties, wearing a modern, professional outfit reminiscent of a doctor or business executive. Her gaze is intense, and her posture authoritative, with arms crossed at the center of the frame. Behind her looms a dark, shadowy silhouette of a tall, menacing male figure. The shadows are detailed but retain a sense of mystery and threat. The backdrop consists of Paris’ blurred skyline drenched in a somber rain-soaked ambiance with scattered neon lights flickering in the distance. An overlay of glistening rain streaks and a gritty, grainy texture runs across the design, adding to the thriller mood. The center lighting subtly highlights the woman’s face to draw immediate attention while keeping the rest of the scene relatively darker.

AU NOM DE L'HONNEUR!

The cover utilizes a high-contrast black-and-white palette. A stark, grainy texture inspired by 1980s film noir posters is applied across the surface to evoke a vintage and mysterious feel. In the center, a shadowy silhouette of a man — presumably Leo — is half-blurred, walking down a desolate, foggy street. Surrounding the figure are fragmented "newspaper clippings" with jagged edges and partially readable text, hinting at crime and a missing person’s case. The background is slightly offset to give a distressed and layered look, emulating old 1980s investigative tabloids. The title, “Missing Leo,” is splashed prominently in bold, iconic lettering, slightly askew, mimicking the ransom-letter effect with an edgy modern twist.
