Alternate Designs for Quicksilver in Concept Art for AGE OF ULTRON

There has ben a lot of talk revolving around Quicksilver in Avengers: Age of Ultron recently. I'll get into that at the bottom of the post as I can't talk about it without spoiling some things for people who haven't seen the movie. Quicksilver was a great character, and today we have some concept art that shows us some alternate costume designs thanks to ComicBook.com

The art that you see here was created by concept artist Andy Park and Jack Dudman, who have done a lot of work for Marvel. We've posted a lot of Park's stuff in the past, and the guy is just crazy talented. What you see here are official pieces of production art that Marvel has released that show several variations of the character's look. 

I personally like what they ended up using in the film, but some of these are kind of interesting and cool. The site points out:

"Artists clearly tried to add elements of the various costumes Quicksilver wore in the comics, such as the multi-shades of green he was initially clothed in for his first appearance in 1964's X-Men #4. There's even some subtle use of Quicksilver's white lightning bolt logo that he has sported throughout, except for his time with X-Factor in the 80's. Pietro is most associated with his 70's light blue or 90's navy blue costumes."

Check out the concepts below, and at the bottom I'll talk about that SPOILER:

SPOILERS:

So there's been a lot of talk revolving around Quicksilver and if he's actually dead or not. We've heard from both Joss Whedon and Aaron Taylor-Johnson. But what does Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige think? Redditor JonLuca posted the responses that Feige gave during a recent Q&A following a screening of Avengers: Age of Ultron, and when Quicksilver was brought up this is what JonLuca said Feige's response was:

"[Quicksilver] is DEAD. 100%, he's not coming back any time soon, there are no plans. No [life-model decoy], no escaping bullets, no retcon. [Kevin Feige] said he is dead and wanted to make sure people understood that."

So there you have it.
