Ant-Man! --An Observation from ClassicComicsMan

Sitting on the back porch and talking about one of my favorite classic heroes, after my daughter gave me a truly special Christmas present :)

Thanks for this trip down memory lane, ClassicComicsMan. Having been born in 1973 and growing up with a father who enjoyed Marvel Comics, I've always followed Hank Pym in all his incarnations. It's good to see others appreciate this well defined and vital character who has helped define the Marvel Universe even to 2009.

Exelsior :)

Thanks so much Netromancer, I think Hank Pym still has potential and glad you agree :)

Great job telling the youtube folks about our lil' or should I say big hero Ant Man! Have you seen the Ultimates! It's a modern Revamp of the Original Avengers! Unfortunately they made Henry Pym abusive to his wife Janet! Later they explain it as a side affect to his shape changing meds! It's not as innocent and Light hearted as the original silver age stories but it's well written! You may want to check those out if you haven't already! Again KUDOS on an awesome channel! Pops

Thanks, Pops! I haven't seen the Ultimates, but I've heard of it. As I said, Marvel just never treated Henry... and Janet... Pym right!  I understand Ant-Man may appear in an upcoming Avengers movie, and that's very exciting! I hope they finally give the little guy some big respect! Have a great day :)

Umm I think he gets his own movie right before being in the Avengers movie.

I heard that as well, and hopefully it'll lead to a revival of the character, at least that would be truly, er, astonishing! :)

@barrybeavis lol this is true! :)

Of ALL the super heros there ever was (including Batman) NO super hero can inspire fear in the harts of evil then the ASTONISHING ANT-MAN. Plus! No one is better with the ladies.

Henry Pym is ubercool.

I like both classic X-Men and Batman quite a bit. I have THE BATMAN CHRONICLES, Vol. 1, which reprints the very earliest Batman comics in full color, it's an awesome volume. I'll try to post more comics videos more often, thanks for the kind words! :)
