Udon Street Fighter Swimsuit Special #1

Udon's Capcom Street Fighter Swimsuit Special Edition Comic Book
I fondly remember the days when Marvel Comics didn't take itself quite so seriously and had Swimsuit Special editions featuring teeny tiny outfits cosplayers re-create even today (bless them.) Gamora completely rocked her Death's Head bikini. She Hulk was awe inspiring. (no, I don't have a thing for green girls, but thanks for asking.) Even the dudes got in on it. These days, with Cinematic Universes to cultivate, the mighty Marvel Comic universe most likely takes its lead from folks preserving the marketing potential...and so..no scantily clad super folks. Capcom....has no such mandate. Begin your hnnnng mantra...


This September, the lovely ladies of Street Fighter take a break from fist fights and tournaments to hit up the world’s hottest beaches, pools and volleyball courts! Everyone from Chun-li to Laura to Juri shows off their favorite swimwear in this comic-sized one-shot pin-up special!

Bringing this gallery of fun and flirtatious artwork to life are top UDON artists like Genzoman, Edwin Huang, Rob Porter, Jeffrey Cruz, Steven Cummings, and Long Vo. Plus the UDON crew is joined by a bevy of guest artists like Gisèle Lagacé (Ménage à 3), Xa (Wakfu), Vincenzo Cucca (Pandamonia), and more!

This issue features two standard covers by artists Ecchi-Star (CVR A) and Aki Lee (CVR B), as well as a special Blank Sketch Cover (CVR C). Plus, artist Nei Ruffino provides a retailer incentive homage variant which calls back to the 90s origins of comic book pin-up specials. Ask your local retailer about obtaining this rare incentive cover.
