Ground Zero Cover - Lysistrata - 01-05-2009

I squinted and squinted, I can't see it
Is it a man with a white shirt on the bottom between the Towers?
Who can make out the shapes on the towers? On the left one right in the middle it looks like a man standing behind a giant fly agaric, but there are no caterpillar or vanishing smile, so I must be wrong.

I've circled it...its a silhouette.
At first i thought it was a fireman's helmet (9-11 and all) but then I noticed what looks like horns/wings (or whatever) on either side of the helmet...so that the silhouette looks a little like this:
...COOL!

Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and the fly agaric now looks more like a woman holding a paper sun-umbrella (or whatever the name is - Kenji?). Very Japanese.
Japan connections... hmm...

I'm glad Wap re-posted the pic of the cover. Much more detail can be seen.

It could also be a conical grass hat such as this:
...but I'm used to seeing these in pictures from China, Vietnam, etc. Maybe Kenji can let us know if such hats are worn in Japan as well.

I'd bet that's Jack.
What's with the headless businessman in the center of the page between the twin towers...is Rasalom back to doing his "animate corpse" routine?

I am not familiar with New York skyline - could it be a building?

I was wondering that myself...it doesn't seem to be angular enough...on the lower right, it seems to curve under at the very bottom, as if it gets narrower.
I just can't tell.
