She-Hulk heads back to the beach — and it looks like she's gonna get Byrned! (You may recall she was on her way to the beach on the cover of Marvel Age #70.) It's all part of summer fun for 1989, as Shulkie (they used to call her that) launched into her own kookie series. Also on the schedule for summer was "Atlantis Attacks," that ran across numerous annuals.
This issue also features a weird Marvel Coming Attractions, in which most of the art shows heroes with big guns, including Nick Fury once, and the Punisher twice.
