19 Superhero Swimsuits For The Sun Loving Fangirl Who Can't Wait To Channel Her Inner Marvel-esque Persona

Loki Cosplay Bikini “Lokini,” $70, Etsy

Fancy yourself the ultimate trickster? Are your friends always guessing at your motives (or maybe you haven’t noticed, because you’re too busy creating chaos and having a blast)? Perhaps it’s time you channeled a little Loki in your swimwear.

Captain Amerikini HERO-KINI, $73, Etsy

Captain America is kind of dreamy, isn’t he? Well, if you’re still riding the emotional high of having seen him finally swear in Avengers: Age of Ultron, this Captain Amerikini may just be the suit for you. It’s no Miss America suit, but it will certainly do.

Thor Cosplay Bikini “Thorkini, $70, Etsy

So, you’ve long suspected that Asgard may be your real home, and although most legends regard Thor to be a male god, you know the truth. Thor is goddess, and knows just how to rock her plus-sized power. Whether channeling the newly transformed lady Thor, or simply paying homage to comic legend, I’m a huge fan of this Thor-inspired string bikini, especially when worn by a woman who embraces her goddess worthy curves.

Hulk vs Hulkbuster Swim, $85, Living Dead

Think it’s time you gave into your green side? Well, you’ll look smashing this summer if you don this Hulk vs. Hulkbuster suit. The full coverage, one piece design is sure to make even the most shy fangirl feel super comfy out on the beach. Go girl, embrace your inner Hulk!

Incredible HULK Inspired Bikini, $45, Etsy

If you’re still channeling Hulk, but ready to show off your tummy’s sweet glory, you might want to consider this Hulk-inspired bikini. Plus, the nuclear neon green triangle top and bright purple bottoms are a fun play on a classic ’80s color combo. Get ready to soak up some UV rays!

Batman Women’s One Piece Pop Art Bathing Suit, $50, Super Hero Den

Feeling retro? You’ll definitely wanna grab this pop art Batman bathing suit. Featuring bright, playful patterns, it’s a great way to pay homage to your favorite superhero — even if he is just a really fit rich guy.

Batman Swimsuit Monokini One-Piece, $25, Super Hero Den

All jokes aside, Batman is incredible and exceptional in his dedication and valor. He and Tony Stark walk similar paths, but somehow, the gritty streets of Gotham make Batman’s feats seem somehow more striking and dramatic. We love his classic goth vibes, his occasionally campy attitude, and the killer supporting cast that makes the Batman mythology worthwhile.

Harley-Kini HERO-KINI, $81, Etsy

Speaking of Batman, Harley Quinn has come a long way since her initial introduction into the DC Universe as Joker’s comical and rather co-dependent sidekick. Having (thankfully!) been granted much character development and eventually finding her way out from under Joker’s thumb, so to speak, Harley Quinn is now slotted to have her own semi-lead in the supervillian film Suicide Squad, set to release on August 5, 2016.

While it’s not a stand alone female super movie, it’s rumored to be heavily focused on Harley Quinn. Turns out a supervillian just might win the race when it comes to giving us our strong, female, comic-inspired movie lead.

Superman Icon Bikini, $20, Super Hero Den

While these two cousins are technically otherworldly, they really are the most super of the bunch. Equipped with all of the heavy-hitting super powers, it’s no wonder Supergirl and Superman are such iconic comic figures. And with the upcoming arrival of CBS’s Supergirl series in fall 2015, we have a whole new reason to be psyched about super-inspired swim fashion. Not to mention, the upcoming 2016 release of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.

Red, White & Blue Color Block Lace Up Wonder Woman One Piece Swimsuit, $62, Unique-Vintage

For years we’ve been waiting for a superhero movie adaptation that featured a strong, independent, female lead. And, for a while there, it seemed like Wonder Woman was primed to fill that role. Unfortunately, due to director Michelle MacLaren’s departure from the Wonder Woman film (still on the docket to be released in 2017), and a handful of other rumored difficulties, the verdict is still out on whether or not Diana will lay claim to the title of being the first formidable female lead in a superhero flick we all long for. (Sorry, Black Widow, you’re a badass, but they simply haven’t given you your own film yet. They should — you could prove them wrong.)

With any luck, sporting lots of Wonder Woman swimwear this summer will remind Hollywood executives that we’re still waiting for the right movie to prove just how inspiring super heroines are.

DC Comics Wonder Woman Retro Swim Bottoms (top sold separately), $12, Hot Topic

This retro, high waisted Wonder Woman suit is adorable. Simply adorable! The lacing on the sides of the “wonderoos” adds lovely detail, and makes a fun little play on the concept of Wonder Woman’s lasso. Definitely a great hat tip to the diva Diana.

Lady Merc with a Mouth Deadpool 2.0 inspired hero-kini Bikini, $81, Etsy

Fans of Deadpool were on an emotional rollercoaster for a while in regard to the production of FOX’s feature length film Deadpool. Luckily, through sheer persistence, they got their movie (their way), and can look forward to the comedic styling of Ryan Reynolds as the one and only “Merc with a Mouth.” So, Deadpool fans, rejoice! And, rock this killer Hero-kini this summer in celebration.

DEADPOOL Inspired Bikini, $35, Etsy.com

Another spin on the Deadpool bikini is this understated piece, perfect for the fangirl who wants to show her pride, without entirely looking the part. Although, most Deadpool fans would probably go pretty far to look the part. Deadpool fans are crazy. (The best kind of crazy — oh god, don’t cut me!)

Fishchick Thin Strap, $53, Splish

While this suit hails to the original Aquaman design and color theme, the 2016 release of Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice is said to be featuring the live-action debut of Aquaman. And, if you’re a fan of Game of Thrones, you’ll no doubt swoon a bit over the idea of Jason Momoa (Khal Drogo) taking on the role of Aquaman, both in Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice and the upcoming Aquaman film, which is apparently scheduled to be released sometime in 2018.

Dark PhoeniX-Kini Hero-Kini, $81, Etsy

For any woman who fantasizes about a wealth of phenomenal power, Phoenix is a pretty clear contender for the role of favorite superhero. Jean Grey is brilliant, wildly talented within the realms of telepathy and telekinesis, and gorgeous to boot.

But superhero, you say? Are you sure Phoenix wasn’t a supervillian? If you’re familiar with Phoenix, then you know that her powers cost her quite a bit. Because, as a wise man in the same universe once said, “With great power comes great responsibility.” Unfortunately, Dark Phoenix didn’t have a wise uncle available to curtail her wild-side, and she managed to wreak quite a bit of havoc in her day. However, one might argue that her Dark Phoenix costume was the more alluring of the two, and that makes for a look you can wield without downside.

Bathing Beauty One-Piece Swimsuit in Rainbow Galaxy — Plus Size, $90, Modcloth

This suit isn’t Marvel official, but it certainly is a marvel, isn’t it? One of the best parts of Guardians of the Galaxy, visually speaking, is the incredible galactic background against which many of the scenes take place. If you’re looking to take a subtle route to paying fan girl tribute, this galaxy suit is pure class.

Made to Order X-Kini Triangle Halter HERO-KINI, $81, Etsy

Ready to rock more of your X-Men pride? Or maybe you’re just a huge fan of Kitty Pride. (Because c’mon, she’s really sweet and incredible, isn’t she? Don’t believe me? Read Joss Whedon’s Astonishing X-Men.) Either way, this boy-shorts and triangle halter combo is all sorts of fun for the sun.

X-Kini X-back HERO-KINI, $81, Etsy

Reminiscent of the bold color blocking used in the costume designs for Astonishing X-Men, this two piece stunner offers a bit more coverage, and may feel a bit closer to rocking your own X-Men uniform.
