Artwork
The front cover to the EP is black. Each copy was individually numbered. On the actual case of the CD, the silver words "Guns N' Roses" were stuck on. The EP-style case even features a flap advertisement in the "booklet", with one side advertising the band's gig at Milton Keynes, England, and the other side advertises the band's video single for Garden of Eden which was released on the same day.
On the German Editions' front cover, the subtitle 'Civil War' and the blood-like graphical element is more on the right down corner, and there is no individual numbering.
