The version of Helmut Zemo that was introduced in Captain America: Civil War is generally considered to be one of the best villains we've seen in the MCU so far, despite being almost a complete reinvention of his Marvel Comics counterpart. The fact that he never donned a costume also remains a sticking point for some fans, but it looks like there were early plans to give The Baron his signature mask - and some badass body armor!
Marvel artist Andy Park has shared some unused concept art to his Instagram page, featuring an alternate costume design for Civil War's antagonist.
To be fair, it wouldn't have made much sense for Zemo to suit-up like this in the movie as he wasn't directly involved in any action sequences. This early design seems to suggest that a third act altercation with Cap, Iron Man and Bucky may have been on the table early on.
What do you guys make of this concept art? Are you disappointed we didn't get to see this incarnation of Zemo in Civil War?
Drop us a comment in the usual place, and keep and eye out for a new look at the character in The Falcon and The Winder Soldier very soon!
