EW has debuted 8 new official stills from Marvel's Avengers: Infinity War to go along with their batch of covers from earlier today.
AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR - EW Spotlights All 23 Main Characters Across 15 Awesome New Covers
In addition to new looks at the likes of Shuri, Loki and Spider-Man, one of the images teases a moment that fans have been clamoring to see ever since the footage descriptions from SDCC a couple of years ago began doing the rounds: Thanos using the Infinity Gauntlet to reach up and tear an entire moon out of orbit in order to use it as a weapon!
At the time, we didn't have much context for what the sequence entailed, but you'll find out a lot more about that - as well as some other intriguing tidbits - below.

Thanos
Here's that aforementioned shot of Thanos.
After the descriptions leaked, many fans speculated that this was the Mad Titan destroying the Nova Corps on Xandar, however, EW now confirms that this actually takes place on Titan, the ruined home world of Thanos.
Strange, Stark, Wong And Banner
This image features four characters who'll be spending a lot of time together in the film: Robert Downey Jr.'s Iron Man, Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch), Wong (Benedict Wong), and Mark Ruffalo's Bruce Banner.
We found out earlier that Hulk would be returning to earth via the Sanctum Santorum, and here EW confirms that Iron man enters the fray when "summoned" by the Sorcerer Supreme.
Rhodey, Cap, And Widow
Now this is interesting!
In Civil War, Rhodey/War Machine (Don Cheadle) was left paralyzed by a stray blast from Vision, who was on Team Cap along with Scarlett Johansson's Black Widow.
However, it looks like differences are going to have to be set aside in order to take on Thanos and his minions.
Shuri
We were wondering what part T'Challa's little sister would play in the plot of Infinity War, and now we have a much better idea.
Shuri (Letitia Wright) is pictured with Elizabeth Olsen's Scarlet Witch and Ruffalo's Bruce Banner. Is the tech genius offering her skills to a fellow science nerd here?
Spider-Man
A look at Spidey clinging to the side of a bus here - no sign of that snazzy Iron-Spider suit, though.
Despite the name being used for marketing purposes, we're still not sure if Parker will actually be referred to as Iron Spider in Infinity War or not.
Whatever mantle he settles on, The Webhead will be very glad to have Tony Stark's upgrades at his disposal once the invasion gets underway.
Loki
Finally, we have Tom Hiddleston's ever-treacherous God of Mischief.
Though Loki seemed to have chosen to stand by his brother by the end of Thor: Ragnarok, the trailers for Infinity War definitely seemed to imply that he'll turn on him once Thanos enters the picture.
Then again, perhaps the double cross is actually a triple cross?
