This is a reprint of Issue No. 2 and with it you can see the wonderful re-working of the original cover. My copy has a slightly different shade of scarlet from what I recall seeing on other issues.
I wasn't able to find a decent reproduction of the original Issue No. 2 cover, but I did happen upon a couple of snapshots of it via eBay. It allows you an idea of the changes made with the reprint version for the cover only.
