Marvel Rivals will officially get wet and wild with sultry swimsuit skins this summer
Summer 2025 is sure to be a hot one. And I'm not just talking about global warming or rising temperatures. For the first time in 30 years, Marvel Comics yesterday announced the return of its Swimsuit Special comic, and within the news, also revealed that popular hero shooter game Marvel Rivals will be getting special swimsuit costumes to celebrate the issue's launch this July. Image via Marvel Comics Along with an overarching story centered around "Earth's mightiest fashion designer, Janet Van Dyne, aka the Wasp," Marvel confirmed that "the issue will also include designs for new costumes coming soon to Marvel Rivals, the mega popular multiplayer video game from Marvel Games and NetEase Games." And so, if you haven't bought stock in Marvel Rivals' popularity yet, just wait until heroes like Spider-Man, Black Widow, Emma Frost, Iron Man, Squirrel Girl, and others are parading around their battlefield in scantily-clad outfits made for diving in to cold waters when the heat rises. "Primarily an artist showcase, Marvel Swimsuit Special presented pinups from the industry’s top talents in a magazine-style format, complete with tongue-in-cheek articles and descriptions," Marvel said in the announcement. "Each year, a light-hearted plot brought the heroes to a different setting, from the jungles of the Savage Land to the shores of Monster Island." The potential for some outrageous, salacious outfits is high. Marvel already boasts some sexy character costumes, most notably the viral Emma Frost and her muscular thighs, or Namor's MCU skin which does not leave much to the imagination. There are several costumes that show lots of superhero skin already, but this comic collab could really blow the doors off. Marvel Swimsuit Special: Friends, Foes & Rivals #1 will launch July 9, and will likely coincide with the start of Marvel Rivals' season three, which is set to begin two days later on July 11.
