Marvel Reveals the Avengers Costumes in SDCC Concept Art

The Avengers assemble to give an idea what the next Marvel Studios movie will look like.

Marvel Studios did not dedicate a lot of time or presence to The Avengers at San Diego Comic-Con. Their booth had elements of a S.H.I.E.L.D. helicarrier command bridge and we saw some "agents" standing around but that's about it. Props for Iron Man and Captain America were on display but nothing really for The Avengers.

What Marvel did do was hand out mini posters with concept art for the individual members of the team in the movie each day. "Assembling" them together gives the complete image (courtesy of Bleeding Cool).

What should be noted is we now have an idea what Hulk will look like as well as Cap's new costume and Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye.

What are your thoughts on their looks? Do they look mighty enough for you?

They look good, but I just wonder how they will equally represent everyone, I doubt they will all get the same screen time...one of my biggest gripes with the team movies.
I'm not as concerned with that, because Whedon has proven he can handle ensembles well.

Also, LOL at the Bitching Brigade getting off to such an early start, and over such trivial crap as COSTUMES, for f's sack.

HOW DARE THEY NOT USE THE ORIGINAL COSTUMES!!!  HOW DARE YOU NOT REALIZE THAT THOSE COSTUMES WOULD LOOK RIDICULOUS ON A REAL PERSON!!!!  Come on people, is that all you spend your time doing?  I cannot come on here, or anything about video games, hell anywhere anymore without hearing someone bitch up a storm about how it's not as cool as this, or it's not original, or blah, blah, blah.  Guess what, if you don't like it, then don't watch it.  If you do like it, then cool.  But if you are just coming in here to purely bitch, then grow up and find something else to do.  Seriously, get over yourselves.  No one cares.

I love how the minute someone starts to make a comment they get placed in the "Bitching Brigade". While I agree with you that people coming into a forum and writing things like "looks like crap", "this movie is gonna suck", "they've ruined these characters" and so on should do more than write a single sentence but I don't see why we can't have a constructive criticism about what is being presented. If Marvel didn't want us talking about it they wouldn't have put the images out. Plus at this point costumes is all we have to talk about since we have barely seen anything about the film and the teaser trailer (aside from some cool images of shield, a quick peek at Loki, and Tony poking a little fun at Thor) didn't give us anything to talk about yet. 
 
Plus costumes have to be a big topic of discussion because the visual image of the movie is the first one mainstream audiences and non-comic book readers are going to talk about. When Captain America: The First Avenger was putting out its early images alot of people in the comic book community were slamming Cap's uniform because it wasn't the classic style. However mainstream audiences and reviewers have been positive about it because of the realism it brings to the character and the real uniform look rather than comic book spandex.  
 
This is something the director and producers of Captain America were conscious of when making the film and while I am a great fan of Whedon's work he also has a reputation of producing films for the fan base of that topic and my fear is that he's going to bring too much comic book into the Avenger's film and not keep going in the same direction the other films have gone. Not saying that the film will be bad.....actually expecting it to be an awesome action flick.....just think he may lose fans of the films that never read a comic book because the look and feel of the film will be too close to the comic books.

Blast it all to Hades, can't see the entire full size image, just Hawkeye and Fury and S.H.I.E.L.D. agents. Nothing to the left of Hawkeye. I do like what I see though, can't understand the complaints.

Awesome! is really all I can say. The Cap. Move was amazing and I have high hopes that the avengers movie will be just as amazing. I see they are going for an "Ultimate Universe" look with Hawkeye.

That looks like Maria Hill and...someone else behind fury? Who is that?
 
Also, not a fan of Cap's new costume.  He looks like a power ranger.

I don't think these images are accurate for what's going to be in the movie. Thor looked pretty Ultimate in the leaked footage.

@Degalon: The character is Agent Coulson, he is a SHIELD agent and he's been/he will be in the majority of the Avengers films (Iron Man, Iron Man 2, Thor and The Avengers (Not sure if he was in Captain America: The First Avenger though)

It's going to be fun hearing Cap say  "Well back in my day" before being rudely interrupted by Tony probably buzzed while the rest stand in the background looking sexy.

This looks awesome from where I'm standing. To hell with the fact they didn't use the 'original costumes' these ones look damn fine to me. They look as realistic as possible for a film including gods, gamma monsters and super soldiers. There's nothing wrong with them at all in this pic.

Am I the only one who thinks it's weird that Iron Man had the triangle dealy in Iron Man 2, but now it's back to a circle? Are they going to explain that? Oh well, not really important in the long run.

Sickness. This movie could either bomb or it could be completely awesome. I hope to god-knows-what that the director does a good job with this. Isn't the bad guy supposed to be Loki? I just hope that this turns out well after all that we've been through with the plethora of Marvel movies.

Thor looked good sleeveless in the teaser, but the difference in beard/hair colour was weird.

they all look good, except for some reason.. I like the 'older' version of Cap's costume that this modern one. 
That and how I wish Edward Norton is still the Hulk.

I had heard that Gwyneth Paltrow wouldn't be in the movie, but I see her in the art. You think that she'll be in it after all, or they just added it as a part of the background art to show off Tony Stark? Also, good to see Cobie Smulders at the end on the right.

Personally I think it'll be Hulk who is being manipulated by Loki, but since the Cosmic Cube is probably going to be involved seeing as how Thor ended, I have a feeling it'll be something much bigger.

Hawkeye pose has ben riped on by real life archers.Also at least give him ultamates glasses or something just looks odd. Caps costume is the meh. An it dont look bullet proof like the bit of scale mail would.Made like the sheild with the same grain in the metal style it look awsome. 
 
Why even have the patch of white on the bicepts?An whats with the front thigh zippers? Looks odd on both.Iron man mask is bit um cheeky i would say.Rest looks fine enuff for what their doing.

Iron Man's chest piece had a triangular insignia on it at the end of the second movie. I don't know if it's on purpose, but they went back to the circular one in that image.

I agree, give Hawkeye the glasses he has in The Ultimates. Without them, his costume looks dull. And I like Cap's costume in the current movie better than this. Other than that, pretty good for concept art.

Don't like the look of Captain America or Hawkeye at all.  For Hawkeye I'm glad they chose the Ultimate version (like most of the other costumes) than the 616 version but at the same time I don't really like the idea of a guy with a bow and arrow in these movies. The point Marvel Studios has been trying to make with these films is giving them a sense of realism (even Thor) so that modern audiences don't dismiss them automatically on the basis of their comic book origins. Letting Hawkeye keep his bow and arrow doesn't fit that theme. It made sense for him to use the bow in Thor because he (Hawkeye) was only supposed to capture Thor not kill him.  
 
What do you think an arrow could do that a bullet can't?
