Marvel Illustrated Swimsuit
From 1991 through 1995, Marvel Comics published an annual magazine-sized Marvel Swimsuit issue featuring pin-ups and tongue-in-cheek articles. The first was titled Marvel Illustrated: The Swimsuit Issue, but subsequent issues were called Marvel Swimsuit Specials, probably to avoid litigation from Sports Illustrated, which has published an annual swimsuit edition for years.
