Marvel Age #65

Marvel Age #65 is Marvel's own news magazine doing what it does best — pulling back the curtain on what's coming next, and in August 1988 that meant shining a spotlight on the Marvel Comics Presents Wolverine series and an upcoming graphic novel. Bob Layton's cover delivers a kinetic scene of a muscular, red-clad warrior fighting off two hulking, moss-covered creatures, conveying the kind of raw action energy that was fueling Marvel's output at the time. At just 50 cents, this is a fun snapshot of Marvel in full promotional swing, with Fred Hembeck contributing his trademark wit to the interior pages.
