DC has added more names to the all-star lineup of artists working on the upcoming G’Nort’s Illustrated Swimsuit Edition which is coming to comic book stores next month. You may know G’nort as the bumbling Green Lantern who protects Space Sector 68. Then again, you may not know G’nort at all. Whatever the case, get ready to see him in his newest role as host and proprietor of this very special swimsuit comic.
Each copy of G’Nort’s Illustrated Swimsuit Edition features a randomly inserted centerfold, distributed in equal quantities: Poison Ivy by Jen Bartel, Nightwing and Barbara Gordon by Jorge Jimenez and Alejandro Sánchez, and G’Nort himself, by Simon Bisley. You’re not going to want to miss the all-new pin-ups of DC’s beach-body babes!
Thanks to the magic of comics, you can join in the beach blanket fun by recreating J. Scott Campbell & Tanya Lehoux’s variant cover for yourself! Grab a friend, pull on your swim trunks, hit the beach with your copy of G’nort’s Illustrated, and snap a photo—the back cover of G’nort’s Illustrated Swimsuit Edition features the same “Gotham Magazine”artwork that Batman holds over his face on the front!
The book collects some of the splashiest, steamiest, swimsuit covers from DC’s best talent, all in one place for the very first time, along with Steve Orlando, Paul Pelletier, Norm Rapmund, Adriano Lucas and Rob Leigh’s Midnighter and Apollo story, “Out There” from DC Cybernetic Summer, and a new 8-page story “Baewatch” featuring The Penguin—clad in the tightest bathing trunks you can imagine—by Julie Benson and Shawna Benson with art by Meghan Hetrick, Marissa Louise and Steve Wands.
Featuring 48 pages of art by Amanda Conner, Paul Pelletier, Nicola Scott, Mikel Janín, Jeff Dékal, Daniel Sampere, Gleb Melnikov, Derrick Chew, Stanley “Artgerm” Lau, Emanuela Lupacchino, Joëlle Jones, Megan Huang, Terry Dodson, Babs Tarr, Pete Woods, Joe Quinones, Hélène Lenoble, Otto Schmidt, Michael Allred, Sweeney Boo, David Talaski, Jenny Frison, and others, G’nort’s Illustrated Swimsuit Edition will publish on August 29, 2023, available in comic book shops and participating digital retailers.
G’nort’s Illustrated Swimsuit Edition will feature a main cover by Vasco Georgiev along with open-to-order cardstock variant covers by J. Scott Campbell & Tanya Lehoux, Adam Hughes, and a 1:25 variant cover by Pablo Villalobos. All four covers will feature J. Scott Campbell’s “Gotham Magazine” artwork on the back.
