I remember that cover - very funny with lots of surprises when you looked close.
I don't think that was Don Martin art, maybe somebody at Estes drew that up in his style.
Do a search and check out the differences in the hands, fingers and shorter legs.
The artist did capture the faces and half closed eyes.
