Avon Comics often put their "contents page" on the inside front cover...

...with an all-new illustration by the best artist available, instead of clip-art from the stories, as this gallery of the ifcs of Strange Worlds issues featuring Kenton of the Star Patrol shows!
(Note, BTW, that Kenton gets top billing, being the first image on each IFC!)

Marvel,
and several other publishers, now use the inside front cover to do a
contents or synopsis page, but they usually use existing art from
previous stories or from the current issue.
FYI, when stories from Avon Comics were reprinted by IW/Super Comics
in the late 1950s-early '60s, the reprints usually left out the ifcs,
since the film negatives and photostats for covers weren't stored with
"repro" (as it's called by printers) for the interior pages.
