The cover was originally created for the song \u003cem\u003e\"Purgatory\"\u003c\/em\u003e, but ended up to be the cover for \u003cem\u003eThe Number of the Beast.\u003c\/em\u003e The original 1982 artwork includes a blue sky in the background; a mistake by the printers of the cover, this was corrected to black when the album was remastered for compact disc in 1998.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe album attracted controversy, particularly in the United States, due to the lyrics of the title track and the cover art depicting Eddie controlling Satan like a puppet, while Satan is also controlling a smaller Eddie. The concept was to ask \u003cem\u003e\"who's the really evil one here? Who's manipulating who?\".\u003c\/em\u003e According to Riggs, this was inspired by a Doctor Strange comic book, \u003cem\u003e\"which had some big villain with Doctor Strange dangling on some strings like a puppet – it was something I read as a child back in the 1960s, I think,\"\u003c\/em\u003e while the images of hell were \u003cem\u003e\"taken from my knowledge of medieval European Christian art which was full of such scenes\".\u003c\/em\u003e In addition, Satan was supposed to have wings made out of lightning and smoke (which can still be seen vaguely in the final piece) but due to time constrain, Riggs was unable to complete it as intended. He also made Satan look like Salvador Dalí as a joke.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAccording to US professor Bryan A.
