Synopsis | Stan Lee talks about his trip to England and Scotland and how Marvel is now the third largest comics producer in Britain and how they are now writing their own Marvel series called Captain Britain.

Items about how Marvel came in second in the Publisher's Softball League and how Irene Vartanoff and Jim Novak won dual trophies as the team's co-captains, Ed Hannigan has taken over as assistant editor from Scott Edelman who is now a freelancer but will continue to script Captain Marvel, Scott Edelman was also the person who handled the alliterative headlines for the Marvel Bullpen Bulletins, Steve Gerber has taken over as editor for Howard the Duck (as well as being the writer) and will also be the writer/editor of the new giant-size comic featuring the rock group KISS, a hint that Marvel just signed a contract to do a continuing series about one of the biggest movie stars of them all (one hint, he's green and mean and leaves an imprint on the scene!) and Deathlok's series has been canceled but you can see a tying up of many of his plot threads in both Marvel Spotlight #33 and Marvel Two-In-One #27.
