The Wasp has been a founding and key member of the Avengers. She even named the team the Avengers and helped find Captain America after he's been frozen for years. She's been the leader of the Avengers for many years. She's the best Avengers in my opinion 🥰

Wasp's power to control insects was never much of a focus but in her early months she did have a favorite wasp she called Boopsie .

Ant man and the wasp are one of my favorite superheroes. And I like their relationship in the comics.

[griti]

those comic artworks are amazing, classics!

I've recently started binging your videos, and I have to say, your narrator voice is really cood for these old timey origins stories. I crew up in the 90's so i missed the golden age but used the internet to gobble up as much superhero comic material as i could before I understood (And had the means to.) that paying for comics helps make more comics. So although I've picked up lore from here'n there, its really convenient and entertaining to have a collection of lore in one place. Narrated fittingly ofc. I hope you pranch out to more lore than origins stories. (You might have already, I havent yet seen all your videos.) I'll be watching, and you do you! 🐜🐝

I. stepped on an ant hill once. I was wearing flip flops. Those ants tore my feet up. I had no idea those little black ants would bite but they sure did.

I wonder what this version of Ant Man and the Wasp would be like if it was adapted by the people who are writing Dr Stone.
"We about to use ammonia acid and calcium nitrate to give this extra terrestrial the worse cold of his life. Get Excited!"

“and some proficiency at Judo” While talking about a cocky scientist trying to survive a colony of ants… is probably the greatest thing i’ve heard

[craigh]

Hank Pym's tech should have been used in conjunction with other heroes. Imagine Thor's hammer in mid flight growing to the size of a bus.

[metalpower]

Leaving alone Ant-man's abuse of Wasp and other details. But that was probably Silver Age.

[thunderlightning]

His origin reminds me of the Incredible Shrinking Man that debut in the 1960's. However, that movie did not end well. Also, the ant part is from Honey, I Shrink the Kids (1987) which debut way later after Ant Man.

[Hellismary]

You gotta do Doctor Strange for the new movie !

[garyjones]

Him and his wife is my favorite I got both of their movie figures very abusive too

[JeffreyWLaRue]

Don't forget that Hank's first wife has a baby girl who Janet adopted and gave her the Pym Particals so she could become the next generation

[texshockeycards]

Did you hear what he did there? Antsewrs.

[solonsaturngaming]

Imagine that eh? What did you do today? Oh i drank this liquid i made and shrunk down into an ant and i Judo threw a lot of ants to get out of there anthill lol

[RighteousWeevil]

Lol, I like how you skipped the whole domestic violence/divorce part

[BlueSnake-]

Love your videos but can you please do videos on the mainstream roster of heros and villians more often instead of mostly lesser known characters and story arcs
