Barbie #2

The cover of this 1991 Marvel series delivers a burst of winter charm, showing Barbie and a friend laughing together in a horse-drawn sleigh as snow-dusted pines sweep past them — cover pencils by Mary Wilshire and June Brigman, with inks by Roy Richardson. The tagline promises "A Winter Wonderland on the Outside! Sun and Fun on the Inside!," a fun contrast that hints at the story title "Surf 'n' Turf" waiting within. With a talented creative team that includes writer Barbara Slate and artists Amanda Conner and June Brigman, this second issue of Marvel's Barbie series shows the publisher bringing genuine craft and warmth to an all-ages adventure.
