Marvel’s Swimsuit Special Is Back For A ‘Brand New Beach Day’

Sun’s out, bun’s out once again as the Marvel Swimsuit Special is back with a vengeance, ready to Sadie Sink it’s teeth into the upcoming Spider-Man movie with Brand New Beach Day #1. Unlike the previous two recent Swimsuit Specials, though, this one will feature “four fun, zany, half-naked stories.” Presumably Marvel means the characters are half-naked but hey, maybe they didn’t finish the art, I don’t know.

In the issue, per PR:

Get YOUR SUPER HERO BEACH BODS READY!

You asked for it, so you’ve got it – Marvel Swimsuit Special is back again! And this time, we’re holding nothing back!

In addition to stunning pinup art, MARVEL SWIMSUIT SPECIAL: BRAND NEW BEACH DAY #1 will include four fun, zany, half-naked stories from across the Marvel Universe:

·       No one skips the gym here! Hulk, She-Hulk, Doc Samson and new hero Powerliftbreak a sweat in a story by Cody Ziglar (Miles Morales: Spider-Man).

·       This is how you throw a party in Atlantis! Namor hosts the most epic beach party you’ve ever seen in a story by Daniel Kibblesmith (Loki).

·       No one brings the heat like the X-Men! See mutants—of all shapes and sizes—hit the beach in Rainbow Rowell’s story that proves how nothing looks better than self-confidence!

·       And the adrenaline really gets pumping in a beach slasher tale starring Spider-Man by Anthony Oliveria (Avengers Academy)!
