If he wasn’t smiling at me, I might be able to go with it… Now it’s just creepy.

The drawing is OK, but I could not decipher that font – Aoref’s? Noref’s?

@Viergacht: There’s a picture of what looks like this exact font, called “Old English”, on Wikipedia midway down the page here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blackletter
Apparently it’s “Noref”.

The artist must be a fan of Picasso. Just like with Picasso’s women where in reality you shouldn’t be able to see the second eye from the side view but Picasso still choose to paint it, in reality you shouldn’t be able to see the wolf’s entire mouth either, not from full frontal view. Hence the grinning wolf.
I do love these old English gothic fonts. Too bad they’re not actually readable.

I personally like this cover. Yes the “N” is hard to read but i love the drawing.
