I just cane b...Hey Groovster!<br /> I just cane by to see what all the BUZZ was about! Yikes! I alwats loved Ant-Man & all Hank Pym's incarnations that followed. I loved this way too short series just like the Beast over in Amazing Adventures. Herb Trimpe loves Ant-Man too that's why he had him in the Hulk comic a few issues also. I always hated how Marvel trashed him in the late 70's? Early 80's on the Avengers. Making him a nut job, wife beater & paethic loser. I<br /><br /> was thrilled hearing about the Avengers movie. But was very disappointed we had no Ant-Man or Giantman in it. The Ant-Man movie so far sounds to me like a lame comedy. Same with the Guardians of the Galaxy. I don't mind humor, other wise I wouldn't had loved Marvel in the 60's- early/mid 80's. But these sound like their going to be what Howard the Duck was in 86! A train wreck! I love Michael Douglas ever since 72 in When Michael Calls & the Streets of San Francisco. But even bigger fan of his father Kirk Douglas Spartcus! Who would been the perfect Magneto back then & Yul Brenner as Prof.X! <br /><br />I just think he's way to old now. His wife Kathern Zeta Jones should had played Wonder Woman 20 years ago too. With Linda Carter as the queen too! Hollyweird sure keeps blowing it! I truly believe Kirby stole a few ideas from 50's monster & SF movies. Like the Incredable Shrinking Man! THEM! The Amazing Collosol Man both the Hulk's origin Gamma bomb scene & Giant-Man. As we'll as both the Hulk & the Thing's looks & personalities. From the 50's-70's Wrestlers the Crusher & Baron Von Rashi the Absorbing Man. Even SNL made fun of Ant-Man. Poor Ant-Man! What's next?? Ant-Man vs Aunt Bee!!?? RRAAIIDDD!!

Left alone it could have become quite iconic. Well, as iconic as Ant-man's look. If that counts as iconic. I wonder who designed that first Wasp costume, Heck or Kirby? Even though Heck had an interesting design sense (look at how ornate his costume designs were. Hawkeye, Crimson Dynamo, Titanium Man, Mandarin, etc.) I think this costume smells like Kirby.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
