04:36 am [dr_hermes] [Link]	"I'm sorry, Dr Pym, but that helmet makes you look like, well an ant!" From 1963, TALES TO ASTONISH# 35. Plot by Stan Lee and script by Larry Lieber, pencils by Jack Kirby and inks by Dick Ayers. Here's another example of Jack Kirby's knack for designing whacky gadgets that seem plausible. Most of his gizmos have their own logic to them if you look at how they're supposed to work. Ant-Man's helmet looks like an ant's head, with the antennae and the part in front that resembles an ant's mandibles. As the diagram shows, it was functional and yet the design not only made Henry Pym recognizably Ant-Man, it may even have been supposed to have fooled the ants to a small exent. I don't know how much they rely on eyesight, but they do have large functional eyes after all. ( Read more... ) Tags: char: ant-man/wasp/hank pym, creator: jack kirby (9 comments \| Leave a comment)

08:56 pm [neuhallidae] [Link]	We need some more awesome up in here! Which, of course, means it's time for a Marvel Adventures: Avengers dump of...uh... roughly 20 pages or so from 14 issues. First off, we have the MA:A appearance of the ones, the onlies, the Agents of Atlas! ( Heh, that was me all right. ) And now, some assorted bits. ( Whatever works. ) And, finally, a little ditty I like to call "Defeat By Squishing!"

10:01 am [seriousfic] [Link]	These are a few of my favorite things... When Batgirl 1 bites When Jeph Loeb writes When I'm feeling sad I simply read MA Avengers And then I don't feel so bad Alright, so I read through some Marvel Adventures Avengers as research for a Peter/MJ story (Plug!

10:08 pm [neuhallidae] [Link]	"The Child is Father To..." or, "So many levels of EW." Gather 'round, chilluns, it's storytime. I was originally intending to post some Christian-comic cheese, but having the memory of this brought up made me insistent on sharing the pain, especially since the original S_D went bust and took this with it. Thus, I bring you the story of how Carol Danvers gave birth to her own rapist, featuring pages and partial pages from Avengers #197-200. ( There isn't a father! )* Issue 200: Roughly 10 1/2 of 35 story pages.

07:31 pm [neuhallidae] [Link]	Jan's bad luck with stalkers, part three. Or, really, a corollary to part two, because I'm an idjit and had somehow totally forgotten about this. So, when I said that there were no major stalkery incidents between David Cannon and Janet van Dyne between the times of Marvel Features and issue 71 of Avengers Volume Three, I was totally neglecting an important one. Namely, Cannon's kidnapping attempt after Jan's divorce from Hank and Hank's later imprisonment. Two pages and two panels from Avengers #222.

01:44 am [neuhallidae] [Link]	Proud and insolent youth, prepare to meet thy doom. I love Avengers: Fairy Tales in so many ways, but by far, my favorite thing about the miniseries is Claire Wendling's gorgeous art on the covers. ( Dark and sinister man, have at thee. ) ETA: Added four assorted pages from the Peter Pan story, because it had my favorite of the art styles.

03:29 pm [perletwo] [Link]	Hank Pym's "One Perfect Moment" of Self-Actualization We had a request for this in the new monthly thread, so I'm sneaking it in under the wire. Here we have 2 1/2 pages from Avengers #229, my crops but not my scans. The setup: For months and months Egghead and the Masters of Evil have been running Hank Pym around like a wind-up toy, and forced him to work on a longevity machine for Egghead. ( How's that workin' out for ya, Eggs? ) Tags: char: ant-man/wasp/hank pym, char: egghead/elihas starr, char: hawkeye/ronin/clint barton, char: moonstone/ms. marvel/karla sofen, char: radioactive man/chen lu, char: tiger shark/todd arliss, creator: al milgrom, creator: joe sinnott, creator: roger stern, group: avengers, group: masters of evil, title: avengers (7 comments \| Leave a comment)

02:33 pm [neuhallidae] [Link]	Speaking of Stalkers... I had a little mental debate whether to post this or not, because God, I hate the art of the second issue something fierce. But after doing that Marvel Adventures post with Stalker!Josten flinging a Quinjet at Jan's head, it might be an interesting contrast to see how Stalker!Cannon does things. Scans from Marvel Feature #6, and Avengers vol 3, #71. ( Nothing says love like knocking her out. ) Tags: char: ant-man/wasp/hank pym, char: wasp/janet van dyne, char: whirlwind/david cannon, creator: geoff johns, publisher: marvel comics, title: avengers (21 comments \| Leave a comment)

11:50 pm [neuhallidae] [Link]	Giant Ants! Or: "Different Universe, Same Love-Life Problem." I wanted to post this for two reasons: 1) MA!Hank and Jan are adorable, and 2) giant ants. Scans from Marvel Adventures: Avengers, #20.
