A boxer in shorts and gloves sits on a stool in the corner of a boxing ring, looking stunned. Behind him looms the image of a newspaper clipping featuring the photograph of a woman's partially disrobed and apparently lifeless body and the partly-obscured headline: Model found slain.
At head of title on front cover: Ringside violence--and a brutal bedroom murder.
On back cover: My name is Max. I'm a worried man.
Stylized graphic of an overhead hanging lamp against yellow background. Red text. Black textbox with blue text inset.
