The t-shirt has a black and white graphic illustration on the front, which is tucked into his trousers. He is stood in front of a wooden panelled dark brown background.

In the background is a map similar to the underground with multiple coloured strands all linking and connecting up. Below at the bottom of the page, there is a passage that introduces the article. The left page is a deep blue colour. At the top of it are two graphics of people drawn as symbols. These are cut up into jigsaw shapes with a piece missing from each one. On the bottom half of the page is a body of text split into two columns.
