Soooo . . New Steve outfit?






My first though is . . . OMG Ultimate!Steve has attacked and replaced 616 Steve.

I don't know about anyone else, but my canon is that Steve went to Bucky and asked Bucky for some rejected design that Bucky didn't use because he didn't have time to come up for something for himself. So Bucky gave him this one. Steve then asked why Bucky didn't use it because it look far less goofy and Bucky said he felt obligated to have wings on his head. But then in all seriousness, with the uncovered head and the general look, he'd passed on it because he felt the costume looked more like and updating of his Bucky uniform then it did of Cap's uniform.

Five hours later what Bucky said finally sinks in and Steve goes HEY! Wait a second, and runs after Bucky.

Anyway
It's not that I dislike the outfit. I actually think i'ts spiffy. It's just not a 616 Steve Rogers look in my mind. It's a Bucky Barnes or Ultimate Steve Rogers look.

On the other hand, relevant to this community, I think Tony would adore this. *L*

I miss the Pirate boots, they were awesome and somewhat whimsical, but judging by his expression he is headed in a less whimsical direction so I suppose it fits. butreally did he need cricketing shin guards?
Maybe it will be like when he was nomad and lost the cape after he realized how silly it was

Hey, there's a thought. Too bad Rikki has Nomad sewed up right now, I could use a little bare chest in comics. Steve has a fantastic chest.

I'm digging this costume. Except perhaps the spats. Not a fan of those. I do like the art as well. I also think it's interesting that he has no mask/cowl.

Where is his shield? WHERE IS HIS SHIELD?!

The outfit is smokin' hot on him, but it doesn't feel complete without the shield. ._. He should trade in his handgun for his shield, or some red, white and blue throwing stars.

Goodbye, 616 Steve.
