Barbie #23
In "Back to School Scramble," Courtney faces a surprise when the school's most popular boy, Randy, asks her to the Pep Rally—only to cancel when she falls ill. True to form, her loyal friend Wendell steps in, proving that support matters more than popularity. Written by Lisa Trusiani and brought to life by Mary Wilshire’s art, with inks by Trina Robbins and colors by Freddy Mendez, this 1992 Marvel issue captures the quiet highs and lows of school life. The cover by Amanda Conner and Jeff Albrecht perfectly captures the moment’s mix of anticipation and heart.
