This is how the book appeared on the shelf when new, back in 1995: a white wrap-around prophylactic cover, warning us how potentially dangerous the real cover is.
Of course, there is absolutely nothing on the cover to indicate what comic it is, or even what company published it (the back cover is pure white). So this little sales gimmick meant you had to pick the book up of the shelf, and look inside at the "graphic" cover to even know what you might be passing up. To that extent, effective gimmick, I guess.
And inside, the real cover?
Still, Paul Gulacy drew the hell out of that detached arm, right?
SPOILER ALERT: Gilad had the arm reattached. All better...
