There are a ton of different types of missions, challenges, and activities in Marvel's Avengers, and at times it can get a little difficult trying to keep them all straight. Mission chains are a special type of quest you will want to complete for the awesome iconic skins and costumes they unlock for each main character.
Once you have reassembled the team in Marvel's Avengers, you will come to a point where you will unlock special missions called mission chains for each individual character. These are little questlines that are specific for each Avenger, either fleshing out some more of their story, giving them special objectives to complete, or both. You'll need to complete the entire mission chain as that character to unlock the unique "Iconic" skin that are sure to resonate with fans of the original comics. Here's what each mission chain entails for all six Avengers.
How To Unlock All Iconic Skins In Marvel's Avengers
While some characters will have specific missions you need to play in order to progress their mission chain, nearly all of them also have what are called global mission objectives. These can be done in any mission at any time, including in HARM room training simulations, as long as you're playing as that character.
Iron Man Mission Chain
Iron man can get his unique cosmetics through global mission objectives, and unfortunately has no unique story related missions. Even his iconic armor is obtained through the main campaign, so these are just bonuses.
