The Cover picture shows a new bifunctional electrocatalyst of strongly coupled molybdenum carbide on carbon sheets (Mo 2 C@CS) toward overall water splitting. Benefitting from the synergistic advantages of active sites on basal planes, high surface area, and unique lamellar structure of supporting carbon sheets, the resulting Mo 2 C@CS exhibits superior electrocatalytic activity for both hydrogen and oxygen evolution reactions as well as excellent stability. Remarkably, the composite is able to serve as both anode and cathode catalyst for the two‐electrode water electrolyzer on page 3540 in Issue 18, 2017 (DOI: 10.1002/cssc.201701276).
