We all have a pretty damn good idea of what the Captain America costume in going to look like in the new Marvel film being directed by Joe Johnston. We all have a good idea of what we are going to see. But what you may not know is that there will be two costumes for Captain America in the film, both costumes come from designs we’ve seen before.

One Costume is going to be a more flashy colorful costume. This is the costume that will be worn when America is showing off their new war hero during the USO shows. This flashy costume will be a nod to the original design. However, This will not be the outfit he wears in combat. The Cap will have a separate suit that he wears when he runs into battle to kick Nazi ass. This second outfit is a battle-ready suit. Here is the full description as given by JoBlo,

Captain America versus Iron Man: We debate who’s right in ‘Civil War’

 

Captain America (Chris Evans) and Iron Man (Robert Downey, Jr.) will reunite in “Avengers: Infinity War” for the first time since they fought in “Captain America: Civil War.”
The two disagreed about whether superhumans should be forced to register with the government, with Cap anti-registration and Iron Man pro.
Business Insider’s Carrie Wittmer and Travis Clark argue their cases for who is right in this debate.

Marvel’s “Avengers: Infinity War” comes to theaters April 27, and it’s the first time some major characters in the Marvel Cinematic Universe will be reunited since they butted heads in 2016’s “Captain America: Civil War.”

Most importantly, the “Big Two” of the MCU — Steve Rogers/Captain America (played by Chris Evans), and Tony Stark/Iron Man (played by Robert Downey, Jr.) — will join forces against Thanos after their “Civil War” disagreement, which ended with half of the Avengers escaping an underwater prison.

The last time the two leading Avengers were on screen together, they were trading punches over the registration of superhumans, which would essentially make the Avengers government employees. This initiative, called the Sokovia Accords, was started by the Secretary of State and Tony Stark after the devastating events in “Age of Ultron” and an incident early on in “Civil War” in which Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen), who is still learning to control her powers, accidentally destroys a building with innocent people in it.

Rogers is against the Sokovia Accords because of his mistrust of the government that essentially made him (“The safest hands are still our own”), while Stark is pro-registration (“If we don’t do this now, it’s going to be done to us later”).

Both heroes have fair arguments.

It’s the kind of debate that even rages on in our own real-world politics, which is what made “Civil War” so powerful. Rogers argued that the superhumans’ right to choose would be stripped away by the Sokovia Accords, while Stark argued that their powers needed to be put in check in order to prevent the destruction of cities like New York (“The Avengers”) and Sokovia (“Age of Ultron”).

The debate between Cap and Tony sparked heated debates between the biggest MCU fans on Business Insider’s entertainment team. Here, Business Insider’s Carrie Wittmer and Travis Clark make their cases below — Carrie for Captain America, and Travis for Iron Man.

Iron Man (Travis Clark)

If you compare the superhuman registration debate in “Captain America: Civil War” to the real-world debate of gun control in the U.S., then the answer — at least in my eyes — is clear: Tony Stark is right.

I’m going to get this out of the way early: I admittedly admire Captain America more than Iron Man. I think Cap’s heart is always in the right place, whereas Stark’s decision-making is consistently questionable.

In fact, Stark is partly responsible for why the government proposes the superhuman registration in the first place. The destruction of the country Sokovia came during the battle with Ultron in “Avengers: Age of Ultron,” and Ultron was created by Stark.

But if you focus on the debate itself more than the personalities or history of either of them, I can’t deny Stark is on the right side of this one. The Avengers have proven to be national security threats just as much as they may save the world from destruction.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is not grounded in reality, but the conflict of “Captain America: Civil War” reflects a very real debate raging in America. If we compare super powers to guns, it becomes clear the Avengers have powers that need to be controlled. That’s evidenced by the beginning of the film, when Scarlet Witch accidentally kills a group of Wakandan diplomats.

A main argument against gun control is that it is a slippery slope to the government banning guns entirely. That’s where Captain America’s head seems to be at: He doesn’t want to see his friends, like Scarlet Witch, at the government’s mercy. He thinks he can better handle her than the government can.

But Captain America, as good as his intentions may be, isn’t thinking logically. At the end of the day, people like Scarlet Witch, the Hulk, and any other superhumans with both unimaginable power (and a lack of control) need to be controlled for the public’s own good.

Stark thinks it will happen eventually no matter what, and if he can get ahead of it, he can manage it. Stark is thinking logically, whereas Cap is thinking with his emotions. That’s the biggest difference between them, and while Cap is admirable, this isn’t a debate settled by emotion.

Cap also wants to protect his friend Bucky Barnes, who is framed for an explosion at a United Nations conference in the movie. As noble and well-intentioned as this may be, at the end of the day Cap is putting the safety of one man over that of the public.

So, as questionable as Tony’s actions have been in the past, he’s the one trying to do the right thing in “Captain America: Civil War.”

Captain America (Carrie Wittmer)

OK. You really got me on the gun control thing. I absolutely believe that purchasing a gun should be more regulated. But this is different because these are human beings. I understand the point you’re trying to make, but I don’t think it’s fair to compare these people, whether they chose to be superhuman (Stark) or not (Bruce Banner/Hulk) to gun control.

Before I continue my rant, I will also admit my bias: Although I absolutely love “Iron Man” and “Iron Man 3” (a Christmas movie!), I hate Tony Stark. I get that being an alcoholic jerk who wears tinted sunglasses is his thing, but his character hasn’t evolved since 2008. The only thing that seems to change is his ego — which only gets bigger — and his relationship status with Pepper Potts, which if we’re being honest is completely dependent on Gwyneth Paltrow’s availability.

You say that the Avengers are a security threat. This is true, but they’re a threat when there is already a more dangerous threat out there. This is Cap’s point, which is clouded in “Civil War” by his bond with Bucky Barnes and by his distrust of the government. But Cap’s distrust of the government is fair: while S.H.I.E.L.D. is not a government entity, it might as well be, and it was literally run by HYDRA in the past. Remember Robert Redford in “The Winter Soldier?” He told Cap what to do, and he was the enemy the whole time. How can Cap and other heroes trust and fight for an entity that is so vulnerable?

And what about the cases when one or more of our heroes see a threat, but the government either doesn’t see it as essential, or they straight up don’t believe them? If the UN, for example, doesn’t see a worthy threat in the pink-headed man named Thanos who wants a bunch of stones so he can destroy half of the universe (very specifically not the whole universe), what are the Avengers going to do? Just let it happen? They most certainly will not.

Cap is thinking logically because he’s applying the limitations of the Sokovia Accords to his own experiences, like the mishap with Robert Redford that I already mentioned in “The Winter Soldier.” And in “Captain America: The First Avenger,” he goes on an unapproved mission in Germany to save Bucky Barnes, planned with the help of the late Agent Peggy Carter and Howard Stark.

Stark is the one thinking with his emotions. His approach is completely rooted in ego, not a concern for humanity. Minutes into “Civil War,” Stark meets a woman whose son was killed in Sokovia, and is so threatened by the idea that someone out there hates him that he goes straight to the Secretary of State behind his friends’ backs, writes legislation, and simply throws it onto a table in front of them.

Do superheroes need to be controlled? Yes! But the Sokovia Accords is not the right way. My solution: There is a lovely bald man named Xavier who has a very nice school in upstate New York, and Disney bought Fox so this can be in the MCU canon now.

16 Side-Splitting Captain America Vs. Iron Man Memes

When we last left the MCU, Thanos (as implied by the arrival of his giant spaceship at the end of Thor: Ragnarok) is poised to claim the Infinity Stones, and we’re now less than one year away from Avengers: Infinity War. This spells trouble for earth and the rest of the universe, although earth is already having problems. The last few movies haven’t touched on it much, but the world is still feeling the effects of Captain America: Civil War. Earth’s Mightiest Heroes are split into Team Cap, currently a group of escaped prisoners and fugitives from the law, and Team Iron Man, a bunch of Avengers now constrained by the Sokovia Accords and strict government oversight.

From what we’ve heard about Avengers: Infinity War, it’s going to take a while before either team can see eye-to-eye. That’s not surprising when you consider all the tension we’ve had between Captain America and Iron Man (even before the Civil War made things so complicated). It’s been a while since all the drama started though, so we’ve found 16 hilarious Captain America vs. Iron Man Memes to jog your memory. And don’t worry, we promise they don’t all say Civil War at the bottom.

1. THEY JUST STOLE OUR MEME
Sometimes you have to put your differences aside to fight for what you hold dear. You can be hard and fast rivals, you can have bitter disagreements, and you can hold vastly different convictions, but there comes a time when you have to weigh your options and decide who your friends and enemies really are. And then you have a day unlike any other, where Earth’s Mightiest Heroes find themselves united against a common threat.

It could be a threat of galaxy-wide destruction from an alien with infinite power, or it could be something really important…like if a rival superhero movie stole your meme. Either way, when things get serious, even Captain America and Iron Man can put their differences aside for the greater good.

Which of these memes did you enjoy the most? Let us know in the comments!

2. EXPECTATION

There are several ways we could go with this meme, so we’ll pick three. First, there’s the idea that Civil War was great and all, but it didn’t have as serious consequences as the comics did. You know, big consequences, like, Steve Rogers dying and all that. Other expectation vs. reality memes will point out that Civil War should have had a lot more characters, so the thumb wars could point to the fact the conflict is smaller than hoped for.

Finally, we could take it to mean that some things just aren’t what you expected, and leave it at that. Regardless, we still get to see Chris Evans and Robert Downey Jr. thumb wrestling with thumb puppets, so it’s a win no matter how you choose to look at it.

3. BATMAN VS SUPERMAN

Batman Vs Superman is old news now that Justice League is out, but we certainly know what side Cap and Tony were on. We’ve already touched on some of Iron Man and Batman’s striking similarities, and while Captain America doesn’t have anything close to the amount of superpowers that the Man of Steel possesses, they certainly have a lot in common.

They’re both leaders with a strong sense of patriotism, they have a similar color scheme, and while Superman is a lot stronger, they are both super-powered beings. So when people started choosing sides, it’s only natural that Cap would be on Superman’s side and Tony would root for Batman, as they saw enough of themselves in the DC heroes to feel confident about their success.

4. TELL ME NOBODY KISSED ME

Ever wonder why the Civil War really started? At the end of the Battle of New York in The Avengers, Iron Man’s main concern was to make sure no one had kissed while he was out cold. He was VERY worried about this — like, the guy just survived a nuclear missile and an alien incursion, and this is what he wanted to know.

In the movie, he wakes up and Cap tells him they won the battle, but in this meme, Iron Man finds that an apparently deep-seeded fear has come true. And if you’re still not convinced that this would prompt Tony to start a superhero war, just remember that Cap’s decades older than Iron Man and used to work with his dad. Not cool, Cap. Not cool.

5. A BETTER HUMAN TORCH

The great thing about memes is that there aren’t that many rules. Universes aren’t that important, as long as we know what’s going on. Since Chris Evans portrayed Johnny Storm in the 2005 movie Fantastic Four, it is perfectly acceptable for Iron Man to insist that he’s a better Human Torch than Captain America, even if that particular Human Torch isn’t actually in the MCU.

While the Fantastic Four movie in questions (or any Fantastic Four movie for that matter) really didn’t live up to its potential, it certainly wasn’t because of Chris Evans. Also, Iron Man with one arm on fire makes for a great insult, but he still isn’t the Human Torch by a long shot, so we’re giving this one to Cap.

6. WHICH ONE IS THE ALPHA?

Captain America and Iron Man may have divided the world’s superheroes into two sides with Civil War, but we have a few heroes in Avengers: Infinity War, who haven’t even made it to earth yet (or made it back, in Star-Lord’s case). In a way, Civil War has put us in the same position as the kids from Jurassic World; we’re looking for the Alpha, but maybe we aren’t looking in the right spot.

We’re looking for right side, the best hero, etc., but the picture is a lot bigger than Team Cap and Team Iron Man, as we’ll only fully see in 2018. At any rate, in this meme Cap and Tony (and Thor) are not the Alpha; It’s Peter Quill. So maybe we should all be Team Star-Lord?

7. UNFRIEND CAPTAIN AMERICA

You know things are bad when people start unfriending and blocking on social media. It’s not enough that Iron Man signed the Sokovia Accords, that he’s running the Avengers instead of Cap now, or even that he busted up the Winter Soldier’s metal arm. Now he’s cutting ties on Facebook too. He didn’t even do it himself, he just told his AI to do it (although if we’re talking MCU, it would have been F.R.I.D.A.Y. instead of J.A.R.V.I.S., but whatever).

We guess that nice note Steve sent at the end of Civil War didn’t do too much to help Iron Man forgive and forget. Maybe Tony hasn’t gotten over that kiss, or he’s still upset that Batman is Team Cap. Either reason would certainly be understandable.

8. THE DRESS

Anyone remember that time the internet decided to go crazy over what color a dress was? Normally, we try to limit internet debates to important issues like politics, celebrities, and the like…and then there was that time someone posted a picture of a dress on Tumblr and millions of people decided they would argue about it for a while. Conflict is a pretty normal thing in the Avengers, so it’s not surprising Captain America and Iron Man had a disagreement about it.

This meme is pretty great, but it shows that Cap is the one who thinks the dress is white and gold. This doesn’t quite make sense, as the dress was confirmed to be blue and black, and Captain America has perfect/enhanced vision. Wouldn’t he have been the one to perceive it as the correct color? Regardless, it’s a hilarious reason to start a civil war.

9. I LOVE CAPTAIN AMERICA

Captain America may have backed Superman and Iron Man may have sided with Batman, but support from another superhero is apparently not an obligation to show similar loyalty. While we don’t see Superman’s view on the matter in this awesome meme, Batman is definitely Team Cap — and we’re talking like, hardcore Team Cap.

Batman doesn’t just think Captain America is right or better or whatever, Batman LOVES Captain America! In fact, he’s so Team Cap, that he’s even willing to set the Boy Wonder straight with a good old slap in the face. Too bad we don’t have Superman’s opinion here to see if he’d even the score. Of course, Robin is clearly Team Iron Man, but really, who would you rather have on your side?

10. DON’T BE LIKE STEVE

We’ve all been there. That time when you studied the flashcards, looked at the PowerPoints, actually read the textbook, and were ready to ace that test. You were so ready, you felt like a genius, like Tony Stark even. It was gonna be a piece of cake, and you acted like it. Then you glance at the first problem or essay, and you’re wondering if this stuff was even on your study guide.

You try and answer what you can, but your answer is the subject’s equivalent of “It seems to run on some form of electricity.” Captain America is pretty a awesome guy, but every once in awhile, being compared to him isn’t exactly a compliment. In this meme, it is way better (for you and your GPA) to be like Tony Stark.

11. I’M RICH

When you have two giant superhero franchises, there’s bound to be a little overlap. Naturally, there will be a few similar characters…and movies, and release dates for these movies, but we’re not going to get into all that since we have memes to discuss. As we see here, Iron Man has so much in common with Batman, that you can swap Cap’s memorable question about what Iron Man is without his armor with Flash’s question to Batman about what is superpowers are, and their answers will still their fit their characters perfectly.

Both Iron Man and Batman don’t have superpowers but are very rich, and both have super-powered suits, but are still geniuses, billionaires, playboys, and philanthropists without them. With so much going for them without superpowers or fancy tech, it’s not surprising that both universes have someone like that.

12. BURN

This meme is another classic example of why you should be very careful before saying something snarky to Iron Man, especially if you happen to be wearing a less-than-epic costume. It also reminds us of how much Tony Stark and Steve Rogers have changed since 2012. Iron Man may have hated playing by the rules then, but now he’s leading the Avengers under a tight set of rules dictated by the government.

And Steve, apart from updating his uniform a few times, has also relinquished his role as Captain America. This means his look should be getting yet another remake, and this one will have notably less stars and stripes (he also went from being a soldier to a wanted criminal, but the outfit is what’s important in this comparison).

13. A SKINNY, ASTHMATIC KID

If you’re going to go head-to-head with Iron Man, then you had better be prepared to defend yourself. Without his armor, Tony Stark is still rich, smart, dashing, powerful, philanthropic, and decently strong. He also has the face of Robert Downey Jr. to boot. Without the Super Soldier serum, Steve Rogers is a nice guy with a head for tactics…and a short, skinny kid from Brooklyn with asthma and a whole slew of other medical problems.

Cap asked Tony what he was without his suit in The Avengers, and he’s lucky Iron Man didn’t throw his words right back at him, or he would have been in the same boat as he is in this meme. Sorry, Steve, you walked right into this one, and Thor agrees.

14. PEPPER SAYS NO

Pepper Pots wasn’t in Civil War, and after looking at this meme, maybe now we know why (completely ignoring that whole taking a break nonsense here, since it didn’t stop them from getting engaged at the end of Spiderman: Homecoming). In previous movies, Tony Stark has made some grand gestures to his assistant and now fiancé Pepper, including buying her a giant stuffed animal (it was hideous, but he tried, right?) and even destroying all of his Iron Man suits.

There isn’t really anything he wouldn’t do for her (except stop being Iron Man forever), and if she had been in Civil War, the conflict wouldn’t have lasted long. All that drama and division, and it could have been stopped with a simple “no” and some shawarma. No wonder she didn’t make an appearance!

15. STEVE ONLY WON BECAUSE I LET HIM

While Iron Man’s face is fabulous here and the caption is completely something he would say, this meme also brings up a great question about the end of Civil War: how on earth did Captain America beat Iron Man? Sure, Cap never quits, is freakishly good at strategy, and had his super soldier best friend to help him.

But at the end of the day (and we say this as total supporters of Team Cap), Iron Man is physically WAY stronger and should have beaten the crap out of Captain America and the Winter Soldier, even with his armor damaged. Maybe Cap is just that amazing or Iron Man didn’t want to kill him and pulled his punches. Either way, this meme is still fantastic.

16. MY BEST FRIEND IS JAMES

Captain America: Civil War and Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice came out less than two months apart, and they had quite a few common elements. They both involved an evil mastermind pitting heroes against each other, featured a billionaire playboy, and introduced a new character to their universe that completely stole the show. The real difference came in the ending, as Batman and Superman ended up on the same team, and the Avengers are still split in two.

As this meme hilariously points out, Marvel could have kept the endings the same too, since Cap’s best friend Bucky and Tony’s best friend Rhodey are both named James. All that Team Cap and Team Iron Man nonsense could been avoided, and all they needed to do was talk about their besties!
