SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING Concept Art Shows A Comic Book Accurate Iron Spider Suit
Marvel Studios redesigned the Iron Spider suit for the Marvel Cinematic Universe but Spider-Man: Homecoming concept art reveals a comic accurate take on the wall-crawler's technologically advanced suit.
At the end of Spider-Man: Homecoming, we got our first look at the Iron Spider suit when Tony Stark offered Peter Parker the opportunity to join The Avengers. When the wall-crawler returned in Avengers: Infinity War, he finally donned the impressive armour and it definitely looked pretty spectacular in action. However, it looks like it very nearly resembled the comic book version!
As you can see in the concept art below, the armour was once imagined as being nearly identical to the one Peter Parker wore during the Civil War storyline when he signed up as part of Team Iron Man.
It is, of course, possible that this version of the suit was used as a placeholder while other Marvel Studios concept artists worked on the redesign but it looks amazing here and it is arguably a shame we didn't get to see this on screen. Then again, who knows what we'll see in Spider-Man: Far From Home! What do you guys this of this version of the suit? Let us know your thoughts in the usual place.
