V has located a really nice version of "Dorp Dead's" cover which I have never before seen. Great work!

I want to point out that I entered "Dorp Dead" because it is virtually unknown to horror fans and placing it in this high-profile competition might inspire some folks to take a look at it. It is a beautiful and poetic work with an undertone of serious horror--and is something subtle enough that you might find in your local school library.
