InHyuk Lee's Eight MARVEL SNAP Swimsuit Variant Covers Land in Comic Shops This July
Marvel is rolling out eight MARVEL SNAP Swimsuit Variant Covers illustrated by best-selling cover artist InHyuk Lee on select Marvel comics in July, with matching in-game Swimsuit Cards coming to MARVEL SNAP soon. The roster spans Magik, Wolverine, Enchantress, Mystique, Psylocke, Nico Minoru, Gwenpool, and Hope Summers.

Summer is heating up the Marvel Multiverse: MARVEL SNAP is rolling out an all‑new set of Swimsuit cards illustrated by best‑selling cover artist InHyuk Lee, and the same artwork will headline a wave of MARVEL SNAP Swimsuit Variant Covers on select Marvel comics arriving in July.
The crossover marries the spirit of Marvel's beloved Swimsuit Specials — the publisher's long‑running summer pin‑up tradition — with the live‑service drop cycle of one of the most successful card‑battle games on mobile, giving comic shops and SNAP players a reason to talk about the same eight characters at the same time.
Eight Heroes Get the Swimsuit Treatment
The new Swimsuit Cards capture the bold, summery vibe SNAP fans expect from the game's seasonal art drops. Each eye‑catching card features a striking swimsuit look for some of the Multiverse's fiercest heroes:
- Magik (Illyana Rasputin)
- Wolverine (Laura Kinney)
- Enchantress (Amora)
- Mystique
- Psylocke (Kwannon)
- Nico Minoru (Sister Grimm)
- Gwenpool
- Hope Summers
It's a roster heavy on the X‑office and the magic‑adjacent corners of the Marvel Universe — a notable choice given how much summer event coverage usually skews toward Avengers and street‑level characters. For SNAP players, that means new high‑profile alt‑arts for staple cards like Magik and Wolverine; for comic readers, it's a chance to grab a unified set of variants without having to chase a full crossover event.
Why InHyuk Lee Matters for This Drop
InHyuk Lee is one of Marvel's most in‑demand cover artists, known for painterly, photorealistic portraits that emphasize character expression over crowded action. Tapping him for the entire eight‑cover set, rather than splitting the assignment between multiple variant artists as Marvel often does, gives this collection a rare visual cohesion — they'll read as a single themed wall in shops that display them together.
How to Get the Variant Covers and the In-Game Cards
The eight MARVEL SNAP Swimsuit Variant Covers hit comic shops in July, and Marvel is encouraging fans to preorder through their local store now to lock in the specific titles they want. The matching in‑game Swimsuit Cards will roll out as part of an upcoming MARVEL SNAP season, though the exact season date hasn't been confirmed.

What This Means for Marvel Fans
This is one of the cleanest crossovers Marvel has executed between SNAP and the comics line: a single artist, a single aesthetic, and a clear roster, all dropping in the same month on both shelves and screens. For SNAP players who collect physical merch, the variants are the kind of pickup that doesn't require following any specific ongoing storyline — they stand alone as collectibles. And for comic readers who haven't tried the game yet, the cards are a low‑friction nudge to download one of the more polished free‑to‑play Marvel experiences on the market.
Expect the full eight‑cover lineup to be revealed image‑by‑image in the coming weeks as Marvel tees up the July release window.
