Marvel Studios just unleashed full chaos on the internet with the first official trailer for Avengers: Doomsday. While Robert Downey Jr. (now as the threatening Doctor Doom) has been quite the recent buzz with his return, this trailer also gave us something pretty much just as exciting: a full look at the new costumes our heroes will be wearing as they take on the multiverse’s biggest menace.
From comic-accurate throwbacks to subtle “King-sized” upgrades, here’s the breakdown of the five hero suits we’ve seen so far for the next Avengers epic.
1. Namor: The Sub-Mariner Goes Classic
In Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Decán’s visual was heavily inspired by Mayan and Aztec design — and it was breathtaking. But now that it’s Doomsday, DC is going back to his comic book origins.
According to Screenrant, Namor was seen wearing his signature blue suit, which includes a high, distinctive collar that fans of the ’90s comics will instantly recognize. So it’s a striking turn, and one that indicates he’s really leaning into being a global (and maybe inter-dimensional) operator.
2. M’Baku: A King’s Ransom
Since then M’Baku has ascended as king of Wakanda too, and his new gear screams a big old “Big King Energy.” No more just traditional Gorilla Tribe armor. In the new trailer, M’Baku wears:
- A long, majestic brown cape.
- Detailed green metal strips that run through his armor.
- A silhouette which proudly proclaims “head of the strongest nation on Earth.”
3. Shuri: The Black Panther Refined
“Shuri isn’t trying to fix what isn’t broken.” Her Black Panther suit remains largely the same as the one she debuted in Wakanda Forever, but some eagle-eyed fans spotted a handful of “tech-y” upgrades.
The suit has been updated with a few greenish hints and slightly different weaving patterns. Considering Shuri’s intelligence, these aren’t just stylistic choices — they’re probably new defensive abilities that will aid her against Doctor Doom.
4. The Thing: Keeping it Fantastic
Ebon Moss-Bachrach’s Ben Grimm (The Thing) got a short but significant cameo. Now fresh from the events of The Fantastic Four: First Steps, he’s donning the very same retro-futuristic team kit we first got a look at in his solo debut.
Visual continuity is looking good as the Fantastic Four at long last are introduced into the main MCU timeline.
5. Namora: Talokan’s Finest
Rounding out the group of five is Namora. Her costume is largely unchanged from the first time we see her, but her appearance with the Wakandans emphasizes one crucial plot point: that the surface/sea alliance is still very much in existence.
They need that solidarity if they’re even going to have a chance against Doom.
What About the X-Men?
While the trailer had a lot of the Wakandans and extends to even more with the Fantastic Four, let’s not dismiss the brief, soul-shaking sighting of James Marsden’s Cyclops. He’s dressed in a bright yellow and blue costume that looks like it was pulled right out of a ’90s comic book cover. It looks like Avengers: Doomsday is finally serving up the “Uncanny” looks we’ve been waiting decades for.

Conclusion
Marvel is being very smart here. They’re merging the grounded, cultural designs of the MCU with the vibrant, brash look of classic Marvel Comics. Whether it’s Namor’s iconic collar or M’Baku’s regal cape, the message is loud and clear: the heroes are leveling up, because they have to.
Which new suit do you like the best? Personally, having a comic-accurate Cyclops and a “King” M’Baku share the screen has us already anticipating 2026.
