The cover illustration is mostly black-and-white line drawing whose top half depicts a city street crowded with buildings, pedestrians, cyclists, and vendors. A cloud of smoke emerges from the open utility access hole in the middle of the street, and a boy peers down to look. The drawing's bottom half shows the network of pipes and tubes and the source of the smoke: a big green dragon.

Next to the red square is a blue one, which creates a small green square where it overlaps with the yellow rectangle. A pencil-drawn rectangle overlaps all three shapes, where all the colors start to blur together.
