Editing Danzig (album) (section)

==Artwork and packaging==
Original LP, CD, and cassette versions of the album cover had no identifying text whatsoever, only a white skull on a black background. The skull, also used on the Samhain albums ''[[Initium]]'' and ''[[November-Coming-Fire]]'', was taken from the cover of the [[Marvel Comics|Marvel]] comic book ''[[The Saga of Crystar]]'', ''Crystal Warrior'' (issue 8). It was drawn by artist [[Michael Golden (comics)|Michael Golden]], who is not credited. The skull on the album cover was drawn by Danzig.

Later pressings of the compact disc added the Danzig band name logo in the lower right. While 1990–1998 pressings of the CD had the [[Parental Advisory]] label in the form of a sticker on the cellophane wrap, pressings since 1998 have the label printed on the artwork. ''Danzig'' is one of few albums labeled as "explicit" despite the virtual absence of profanity, save for one use of "whore". Glenn Danzig commented on this use of the advisory label: "That's because of its content. We're making people think. You're not allowed to make people think in the United States. You're not allowed to have them question the government or authority."<ref name="CityPages"/>
