THE latest Warrington Wolves shirt is now revealed!
The Wire team will be wearing this new kit when they play Wigan Warriors at Newcastle United's St James' Park on the first day of Magic Weekend 2018.
Last year the players sported a 'Thor' look when they again faced Wigan in the Newcastle feast of rugby league, when all 12 Super League teams play an entire round of fixtures at the one venue over two days.
But this year's effort is based around a whole different breed.
Wolves chief executive Karl Fitzpatrick said: "We’ll be transformed to the Marvel character Ant-Man!
"Wolverine would have been the obvious choice but unfortunately our kit supplier does not have the UK licence for the Wolverine character.
"However, I’m sure the supporters will love the Ant-Man shirt."
Let us know what you think? 'F-Ant-astic!' or 'P-Ant-s!'
