I know this probably isn't the best choice, but since Dr. Claw is one of the most infamous examples of this, I feel he should be the page image.

Hopefully the cat gets it across that it's the same character.

[up][up]I've not got much experience with this side of the site, but maybe something like this:

A mostly unseen Dr. Claw in the original Inspector Gadget cartoon vs a fully onscreen Dr. Claw in the 1999 film adaptation.
