Coming 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 and Laura to Juri show 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. If you would like your very own copy, go ahead and ask your local retailer about obtaining this rare incentive cover. Comic book specialty retailers everywhere are now taking pre-orders for STREET FIGHTER SWIMSUIT SPECIAL #1. Head in to your local comics shop to reserve your copy now.
