Swimsuit Specials

I have heard that Marvel and other publishers bring out 'Swimsuit Specials' from time to time. What's more, I just found a torrent for this too.

(Surprise, surprise! It even has an Image Comics swimsuit special. O_o\)
Have any of you ever seen one of those in real life?
Oh, and...
The Marvel series semms to have stopped at 1995. Do you know whether it still exists?

Waitaminit! I thought Image was responsible for revitalizing the industry, with their encouragement for individual work as far as artists were concerned. And what's wrong with Liefeld? He was a crappy writer, I admit, but a great artist, no? O_O?
