The digital release of Captain America: Civil War has got Marvel fanatics feeling good these days. The wildly popular film stands as one of the studio's best productions, leaving moviegoers more than ready for Avengers: Infinity Wars to hit theaters. So, to celebrate the film's recently release, one of Marvel's best concept artists gifted fans with some special keyframes.

Andy Park took to Twitter earlier today and shared two pieces of concept art from Civil War. The artist posted the pictures along with a message which reads, "Here's the At-At (from that really old movie) keyframe I did for #CaptainAmericaCivilWar #SpiderMan #IronMan #AntMan."

Looking at the pictures, fans will remember the film's climatic battle sequence at an abandoned airport. Team Iron Man and Team Captain America face off against one another with heroes like Black Panther and Spider-Man making their debut. In fact, many fans agree that Spider-Man stole the scene as the quippy teenager helped bring down Ant-Man's rather ginormous form.

As referenced by Andy, the web-slinging teenager was inspired to take down Giant-Man in a way that would make Luke Skywalker proud. During Civil War, Peter Parker asks his teammates if they remember a scene from a really old movie known as Star Wars: Episode V - Empire Strikes Back. The hero recalls a scene where "they're on that snowy planet with the walking thingy."

Obviously, Star Wars fans know what Peter is referring to exactly. 'They' is none other than the Rebel Alliance, and the 'snowy planet' they're on is called Hoth. The 'walking thingy' is more aptly named AT-AT, and Peter is convinced he can use his webbing to take down Giant-Man like how the Rebels toppled the Imperial AT-AT units.

The vigilante webs the massive hero's legs similarly to how the Rebel Alliance used the tow cables on their airspeeders. This gets Giant-Man entangled and prevents him from moving forward. Andy's concept art then shows Iron Man and Iron Patriot as they fly into their towering foe, knocking him backwards onto his back.

For interested fans, this reveal isn't the only one Andy has given to fans. The artist has worked on numerous Marvel films like Guardians of the Galaxy, leaving him with a backlog of art. Andy has already uploaded several behind-the-scene drawings for characters like Black Panther, Hawkeye, and Ant-Man from Civil War.

Marvel's Captain America: Civil War finds Steve Rogers leading the newly-formed team of Avengers in their continued efforts to safeguard humanity, but after another incident involving the Avengers results in collateral damage, political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability, headed by a governing body to oversee and direct the team. The new status quo fractures the Avengers, resulting in two camps—one led by Steve Rogers and his desire for the Avengers to remain free to defend humanity without government interference, and the other following Tony Stark's surprising decision to support government oversight and accountability.

Captain America: Civil War is currently available on Digital HD and will have its physical Blu-ray/DVD release on September 13.
