Comic book cover for Lazarus Order issue #1. Logotype at the top in red, with a stylized plague doctor mask making up part of the L. The vibrant colors of the illustration showcase a plague doctor mask in black and red with a mass of rats running out from beneath it. The rats have glowing red eyes. The background is bright green, toxic looking substance.

Lazarus Order wants YOU - add to your pull list now! God save the sick. Poster art in the style of a vintage recruitment poster, with a plague doctor masked figure pointing a red gloved hand. Art by Dean Haspiel.
