Since then , the Avengers ’ roster has only grown to include more hoagy from the Marvel Universe , and its popularity with fans has grown exponentially along with it . While that ’s due in part to the live - action depictions of the Avengers in the MCU , the comical record book community has always held a position for the Avengers in its corporate bosom , and that ’s mostly due to the rich history of the legacy superhero squad itself .

Sure , the MCU adaption and the boom roster help in that gumption , but sometimes what fan really desire is n’t a new character or continuity , but just a unproblematic superhero redesign to keep things fresh ( even if those redesigns can sometimes go a bit overboard ) .

10Iron Man Trades His Sleek Design For A Clunky Horrorshow
TimeslipIron Man by Guy Davis
In the pages of the comicTimeslip , which was a book that challenge artists to redesign classical Marvel Comics characters as if they were the ones who created them to begin with , Iron Man swap his silken design for a clunky horrorshow . While his origin stay the same , artist Guy Davis reimagined Tony Stark ’s original suit with stretch limbscontrolled by mechanical pulleys , hauntingly empty eyes that offer total shelter ( as counterbalance to the original exposed look ) , and a full - body protective shell that ’s not too different fromIron Man ’s classic Mark 1 .
The adult difference is the awkward , creepy , elongated aesthetic given to this rendering of Iron Man or else of the bulky original armour that easy became the silken collection of suit fans love and love today .
9The Incredible Hulk Becomes The Incredible Hulks In Horrific Redesign
TimeslipHulk by Tony Salmons
The Hulk was to begin with conceived as being of pure furore , the freak man keep bottled up inside themselves made apparent . Well , theTimeslipredesign by Tony Salmons emphatically portray the Hulk in that light , though not in any way buff would be conversant with . When Bruce Banner was caught in a gamma burst of his own making on Earth-616 , he saved Rick Jones from that very fate , and became the Hulk . In theTimeslipreality , Banner did n’t get to Rick in time , and the two of them digest the consequences of the gamma pic . Banner and Jones become fused into one monster , both becoming the Hulk when the other gets angry .
Not only is the origin and case totally dissimilar , but the look of the Incredible Hulks is also a geological fault from the Graeco-Roman style , making them seem far more vicious and hateful in their rage than the classic Jade Giant . Plus , the extra head growing like a cyst on the side of the Hulks ’ neckis just manifestly worrisome .

TimeslipQuicksilver by Vince Giarrano

Magneto then used his powers to control Quicksilver never left his side , give that Pietro ’s entire body was quite literally dripping fluent metal .
Rather than moving at super fast speed that gave the effect of a silvery streak through the air , this Quicksilver was stationary most of his life only to be enslaved by a nefarious madman he could never campaign away from , makingthis redesign a distorted mockery of Quicksilver ’s moniker .
7All-New She-Hulk Gets A Deadly Futuristic Redesign
Marvel Universe: Millennial Visions- She-Hulk by John McCrea

Marvel Universe: Millennial Visions- Iron Man by Sonny Liew
Artist Sonny Liew imagined a universe where , in the year 2020 , Tony Stark ’s party give-up the ghost altogether under , and he had no choice but to go forward his groundbreaking feats of engineering research in the one position who would pay him for it : Russia . Once there , the Russian administration pushes Stark to go further with his inventions than he ever had before , including cybernetics and even mind - alter drug ( though he was n’t fully aware of the drug piece ) . However , when Stark had enough , he entombs himself in the underground burrow systems of St. Petersburg , somehow convinced SHIELD agents will obtain him and save him from the fate he wrote for himself .
This Iron Man is a sad excuse for the hero sports fan know and love today , as he was a gentleman who cared more about his enquiry than his own liveliness , and quite literally became a memorial to his own strip world . Iron Man locked himself aside under the inhuman Earth roll in his even cold tech , where no one would ever chance him .

Loki becomes king , and all who oppose him are kill - let in Thor . So , Thor and the other warrior were send to Hel , where they allowed themselves to be corrupt for the sake of power , and for the hazard to revert to Asgard to shoot down Loki and his Hypergods .
This version of Thor is seemingly pulled directly from a Norwegian metal striation ’s art journal , and is easily the most hard-core version of the character Marvel Comics fans have ever see .
4Black Panther Becomes A Symbol Of Vigilante Justice Rather Than Royalty
Marvel Knights: Millennial Visions- Black Panther: New Girl In Town by Sal Velluto
T’Challa ’s Black Panther is the prototype of regal , imposing heroism , as he not only fights alongside the Avengers to salve the world , but he also fights for the very people he ’s responsible for in his nation of Wakanda . However , in an alternate take on theBlack Panther ’s influence on the Earth , he ’s become a symbolization of vigilante DoJ , and someone who had never even meet T’Challa before takes up the mantle to fight street thugs and low - degree criminal in her neighborhood .
The sleek , black suit is almost the spitting look-alike of the classic Black Panther costume , but with the addition of fortunate nipper and other shining embellishment made to the iconic design . This vigilante in truth made the chimneypiece her own , while staying true to the Avenger she based her superhero persona on .
3Spider-Man Becomes A Grotesque, Cave-Dwelling Mutant
Marvel Universe: Millennial Visions- Spider-Man by Steve Uy
What if Peter Parker was born a mutation ? That ’s the question this piece of music by Steve Uy entertained when reimagining Spider - Man .

That is , until Spider - Man lose his powers , then his natural mutant came flooding in at full force , twisting Parker into a horrifying puppet completely unrecognisable to every Marvel Comics fan there is .
Theartwork portrays Spider - Man as some kind of wanderer - like mutantcave indweller , seemingly hissing at whatever poor creature wandered too close . emphatically not the classic well-disposed vicinity hero .

1Captain America Becomes A Symbol Of Freedom For Artificial Intelligence
Marvel Knights: Millennial Visions- Captain America: The Artificial American Dream by J.H. Williams
In the not - too - upstage future of the Marvel Universe , humans and mutants put aside their differences and come together as one , propelling the world into an old age of technical revolution . AI is developed and android are brought online to do the work world and mutants do n’t want to do any longer . However , sentient android did n’t like being treated as slaves . So , in an effort to oppose for their exemption , the AI create a leader within its ranks free-base onthe greatest symbolisation of exemption in the planet ’s account : Captain America .
This is easily one of the wildest variants of Captain America in the Marvel multiverse , though one that fully captures the spirit of who he is as a hero sandwich . Plus , it ’s fascinating that the future paintsCaptain America as a symbol of freedom for robots , testify just how timeless the Sentinel of Liberty genuinely is .
Every individual one of these truly bizarre ( though admittedly awesome ) Avengers redesigns is shockingly unlike from the heroes ’ Greco-Roman looks . Whether they were transformed into grotesque ogre or robotic reimaginings , each of these redesigns dares fans to see their favourite Cuban sandwich in a completely new light , as they completely disapprove the established steel of every superhero that received one . Given the strikingly unrecognizable nature of these depictions , it ’s a miracle Marvel Comics even allowed these 10 extremeAvengersredesigns in the first place .
