Using the search term "Dark Tower" and looking at the year 1982, we see that there are two possibly relevant copyright registrations: TX0001057290 and TX0001057289.

TX0001057290 says "Copyright Claimant: Michael Whelan on ill. in book;" and "Edition: 1st ed."

The registration does not mention the dust jacket. Furthermore, even if the registration covers the dust jacket, the same front cover art was subsequently published in the second-edition dust jacket without notice, which would risk forfeiting the copyright for the cover art.

Using the search term "Dark Tower" and looking at the year 1984, we can see that there are no copyright registrations relating to the second edition.

TX0001057289 refers to the literary work and not the dust jacket.

Thus the front cover art is in the public domain in the US.
