Some Marvel Cinematic Universe characters have looks that are pretty close to their iconic comics incarnations, but Scarlet Witch and Hawkeye have always ditched those looks for more practical outfits. However, this concept art shows that Marvel was considering going in a more comic-accurate direction for them.

Concept artist Andy Park has posted art he did for Scarlet Witch and Hawkeye’s costumes. Scarlet Witch has a headband that is a very scaled back version of her famous headdress:
Park’s caption explained, “This was a version I pretty much knew they wouldn’t pick but had to try. Specifically, I’m referring to her headband, which mimics her classic headdress from the comics. I really don’t think she needs this but I did it more for the fun of it.”
He also has a version of Hawkeye with a mask reminiscent of one the Ultimates version of the character wore:
Park calls it a “stealth look & loosely based on his Ultimates look”.
While I’m kind of glad they didn’t put a mask on Hawkeye, the Scarlet Witch’s headband would have been a great nod at her iconic look. Maybe there’s hope for Avengers 3?
