Re: Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier
IGN:
Captain America's New Costume?
Steve Rogers might be adopting his Secret Avengers look in Winter Soldier.
The days are over when superheroes would just wear the same old suit for years and years and years. And while for a guy like Iron Man it always made sense for him to keep upgrading his armor, it looks like Marvel's plan is for their other heroes to keep changing garb as well. I guess that makes sense as well, really (and not just because you can sell more toys that way).
Anyway, a leaked image has shown up that purports to be Captain America's new uniform for (at least part of) his next film, The Winter Soldier. Take a look at the concept design below, though keep in mind that this image cannot be confirmed at this time:
CBM landed the image, and while we don’t know for sure if this is a design from the sequel, it definitely looks like the art style that we've seen in past Marvel concept art.
As the site points out, the new suit looks as though it's taking its inspiration from the comics, specifically the Secret Avengers/Steve Rogers.
What do you guys think of this look? Lots of folks have complained about Cap's Avengers costume (it kind of grew on me). If this is the real thing, is it an improvement?
CBM:
One of the few criticisms of fans about THE AVENGERS, was a dislike of the suit worn by Steve Rogers, a.k.a. Captain America. So, we figured there would be a revamp in store for Cappy's sequel movie. Well, CBM scooper "Flint" sent us some concept art, and this may be it! Tell us what you think.
Taking a que from the heroic age suit (see comic book image below), gone are the midriff stripes. While you can't see it from this new artwork, the star on Cappy's chest may still remain. The helmet is a little more of a minimalist skull cap with several pieces, and sporting a chin strap. No wings, but you can see his ears now. Overall the helmet feels a bit more fluid with the suit than the previous one. What do YOU think?
