A giant, armor-clad skeleton bursts out from the snow. It wields a massive axe in one hand and arrows and broken sword blades stick out of it's undead remains. It looms over a surprised woman with long, brown hair wearing leathers and fur-trimmed winter clothes. She's knocking an arrow in her longbow in reaction to the undead monstrosity. She's in trouble, as her quiver is empty. A snow covered forest and mountains are in the background. The Dragon masthead is yellow and the rest of the text on the magazine cover is a darker grey that stands out against a yellowish-light gray background.
