Tom Holland's Peter Parker made his MCU debut in 2016's Captain America: Civil War when Tony Stark recruited the teenager to his team of pro-Sokovia Accords heroes.
Marvel Studios never really delved into the morality of Iron Man asking a child to fight the likes of Captain America and Ant-Man for a cause he arguably had no stake in. However, we'll put that down to the web-slinger's inclusion in the movie being relatively last minute!
Regardless, Spider-Man was Tony's ace in the hole, and when he introduced him to the rest of The Avengers, it was as "underoos." Now, concept artist Josh Nizzi has shared a Spider-Man: No Way Home suit design featuring a nod back to that scene.
After turning his suit inside out, Peter would have discovered literal underoos (likely placed there by Tony as a joke). Another version shows the hero's suit losing its stability and becoming baggy just like in Spider-Man: Homecoming.
Why didn't either of these make it into the final cut? There could be any number of reasons, but like "Karen," the latter idea was ditched in Spidey's subsequent MCU appearances. As for the underoos, their presence arguably wouldn't have made sense when Peter designed this suit himself in Spider-Man: Far From Home.
Still, they're both fun ideas and we'd recommend heading to Josh's Instagram page to check out more of his amazing artwork. In the meantime, you can check these out in the gallery below!
