A while back someone mentioned that the Scholastic Kharé - Cityport of Traps contains a picture of the Sulphur Ghost, which was never depicted in the Puffin or Wizard editions of the book. Are there any other instances of Scholastic reissues containing artwork that shows scenes, creatures or characters that didn't appear in the original version?

All this information is from Malthus Dire.
(ffreviewermalthusd.blogspot.com)
New Illustrations in Scholastic Reissues:
Forest of Doom 303: Pterodactyl
City of Thieves 115: Chained Man
City of Thieves 296: Thieves (See Below)
Shamutanti Hills 95: Bandits
Kharé: Cityport of Traps 412: Sulphur Ghost (Link to Illustration)
He only goes up the the third set of re-issues though so there is nothing on the Seven Serpents or the Crown of Kings.
I think they may have the original illustrations like Return to Firetop Mountain does.
