Seriously, Marvel, you need to keep up, hopefully it would encourage them.

Those were fun back in the day and they were a bit of a parody of the more famous Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue. SI has hit the bottom (see what I did there) with Kim Kardashian this year.
I concur. I miss it very much, especially the parodies (LOL):
And how can you not love the nude Ghost Rider pin-up.
Those were fun when I was 15 and too poor to have internet.
I loved the old Marvel Swimsuit issues. I never paid much attention to them until my middle school banned them. Then they became huge in my school. it became a sign of Fight the Power to tape the pictures on the walls of the school. it was a huge social moment against censorship that lasted a fun 3 days!

Those Swimsuit Issues were fun back in the day, in a very different time, with a very different readership. I'm not sure how lucrative they can be in 2022. Fun yes...I suppose for nostalgic reasons but will they be "totally rad" with today's oh-so-cynical readers and whose numbers are far less than they were in the 90's?
DC's Swimsuit variants is a decent speculative push but do we really need more speculation-driven sales that don't translate into sustainable, long term success?

Isn't Udon doing a Street Fighter swimsuit issue every year? If it works for them, it can work for Marvel.
Bringing back the old, killing the young: that's the Marvel way
best not to do it. avoid the controversy. avoid drawing women in "those" type of poses. leave it alone. DeviantArt has it covered.
