Marvel Age #60

Marvel's official news magazine turns its spotlight on Excalibur with this March 1988 issue, featuring a vibrant Union Jack backdrop that sets the stage perfectly for Britain's newest super-team. Alan Davis and Paul Neary's cover bursts with energy as the full roster — including a red-suited figure, a blue-costumed flier, a fiery woman in gold and red, a blue demonic figure with a tail, a frog-like creature, and a dark-haired heroine in blue — leaps toward the reader in dynamic formation. If the bold tagline "Excalibur Rules!" is any indication, this is a great snapshot of the excitement surrounding the team's arrival on the Marvel scene.
