Marvel's Official News Magazine trades capes for swimwear in this cheerful 1987 "Special Summer Fun Issue," with Kevin Maguire's pencils and Bob McLeod's inks delivering a breezy beach scene packed with Marvel heroines. She-Hulk commands the foreground in a wide-brimmed hat, tending a grill, while a fiery-haired redhead, a blonde, and several others enjoy sunbathing and a spirited volleyball match in the background. It's a genuinely fun snapshot of the Marvel Universe at ease, and a warm reminder that even super-powered folks need a day off.
