The Cover picture shows a metal–phenolic carbon nanocomposite that is designed and assembled by metal– organic coordination. The phenolic groups on tannic acid facilitate the aqueous dispersion and crosslinking of carbon nanotubes and provide redox‐active sites for pseudocapacitance. The resulting materials exhibit high strength, flexibility, and stable volumetric capacitance in bending conditions. More details can be found in the Full Paper by Oh et al. on page 1675 in Issue 8, 2017 (DOI: 10.1002/cssc.201601615).
