That flag design is just a manipulation of the swastika into a patterned form

what a fucking cop out maybe the next step will be editing the actual plot and setting to make it more culturally sensitive or whatever.

The symbolism in today's cover is much more subtle though.

Observe.

if I recall the big letter Z with a bowtie on it that goes vertical all over is also some kind of nazi thing

old edition

I like that they used a Mickey Mouse watch. Yes the US flag with swastikas and stuff all over it is relevant to the book but it's a bit too shock-value. That watch is a nice small detail and relevant to the plot.
