From the lowly skeletons or "grunts" emerging from the water at the bottom of the piece to characters like Skylla and Warduke, who act as mini-bosses, to Venger - who fans may recognize as the main antagonist from the cartoon series running in the middle of the 1980s - the new DMG cover art mostly concentrates on the villains of the Dungeons & Dragons universe. Benevolent behind them all is a massive Dracolich, suggesting the creature's capacity as a potential mastermind.
Further implying another legendary opponent, the rear cover art features an adventure party investigating an ancient Mind Flayer temple. Josh Herman, Head of Art at D&D for Wizards of the Coast, discussed the motivation behind the new cover art, saying these villains reflect "the amazing toolkit that D Ms get to play with." Herman notes that although DM'ing is more than simply monsters and conflict, it's a really enjoyable aspect of being a DM and so Wizards of the Coast wanted the cover art to be something that would help players actually see the alternatives the book gives to them.
