Barbie Fashion #33

Barbie strikes a breezy, confident pose on a sun-drenched beach in this September 1993 issue from Marvel Comics, wearing a sheer purple cover-up over a coordinating bikini and strappy sandals, with a beautifully detailed sandcastle — complete with red bucket and shovel — rising beside her. Cover pencils by Mary Wilshire and inks by Jeff Albrecht give the scene a bright, polished warmth that fits the Barbie Fashion series perfectly. Inside, writer Barbara Slate and artist Mario Capaldi bring the story "All That Jazz" to life, making this a fun addition to a series that earned Marvel its Parent's Choice Honors recognition.
