Marvel Age #48

Marvel's official news magazine delivers a jam-packed 1987 cover by Kerry Gammill, showcasing a sprawling cross-section of the Marvel Universe — the New Mutants in their yellow-and-black uniforms anchor the foreground, while waves of heroes and characters including Captain America, She-Hulk, the Thing, and dozens more fan out across a bold X-shaped composition. Cover blurbs promise X-Men vs. Avengers, the Fallen Angels, and even more Marvel news inside, making this a genuine snapshot of how much was happening across the line that year. Fred Hembeck tackles the lead story revisiting the first Fantastic Four/X-Men clash, lending his signature wit to one of Marvel's storied early rivalries.
