This is a drawing of a scene outside a store. An individual in a robe holds a staff and is accompanied by a fluffy dog. They stand in front of a window display showcasing "HALO SHAMPOO." The store's signage reads "discount DRUG." The drawing includes the title "the new adventures of JESUS" in medieval-esque lettering. The cover has a vibrant turquoise background with a yellow shop exterior. A small comic inset in the corner invites readers to enjoy the "new improved testament."
