That Japanese boxart is also pretty brilliant.

the Japanese box art looks more like a scene from Aliens than anything else!

The US box art looks like it was done by the same guy who did the Mega Man 2 box art.

Actually this fellow has quite a bit to say about videogame cover art, including Clash at Demonhead:

most notably:
... There's the oddly proportioned dragon creature on the left, tiptoeing across a stained-glass sidewalk to gingerly reach out and grab the a## of the game's hero, Sgt. Billy “Big Bang” Blitz. There's the apparently legless man on a hoverbike, ...

Perhaps that's why seven ate it.

Well, the American artwork is awesome, can't say I feel the same way about the Japanese box to be honest.
I love the 80s sci-fi nonsense art.

Not quite sure why exactly, but I've been thinking about this game all the damn time lately.
TBH, I've never seen another copy of the game than the one I owned, and no one I've talked to has ever even heard of it before. Deep down inside, a part of me had started to believe that the game was a figment of my childhood imagination, or that I owned the only copy that had ever made it to American shores.
And here you all are, discussing box art? Color me pleasantly surprised.
