The Perfect Ant-Man Adaptation

[@tylerbertram7065]

I prefer Hank and Janet's relationship in this show over the comics by making Hank a pacifist who only resorts to violence when he has to and Janet into a hyperactive and optimistic comic relief is the probably one of the best things to come from the characters.

[@sonnypark124]

@@bowserbreaker2515comments like these makes me wonder if people can actually read. Without using that one panel by the hack Shooter, tell me when Hank has been abusive. Aside from the fact that he was having a mental breakdown during that time Hank still never mentally recovered from striking Janet, he also almost committed su*cide over it, hell he only stopped cause someone stopped him. A lot of people will be all for "we need more superheroes to have mental breakdowns" until a superhero has a mental breakdown and is weaponized against the character specifically because people can never bring up another one, it's pretty simple to admit that you have no knowledge of the character or even that run. As much as I hate JS, he didn't even want Hank to strike her on PURPOSE, the artist just took it wrong.

Considering pym is bipolar, it would be amazing character building to say that the reason Hank is such a pacifist and wants to rehabilitate them is because he himself has gone through mental struggles that caused him to be seen as a bad guy by those around him and probably was around other with illnesses that were damaging themselves and those around them and those events lead to him want to rehabilitate people that probably were in a simular situation that he was once in life

[@Grizabeebles]

It's important to remember that Hank diagnosed *himself* as bipolar and started treating himself with lithium compounds he synthesized himself because he considers himself at least as smart as any of the psychiatrists that he'd met up to that point. That sounds to me like Hank has a deeply ingrained sense of superiority and a grandiose "I alone can fix the world" mentality. No wonder Ultron 5 went bugnuts. Wally Wingert did an amazing job portraying Hank as a man whose voice is perpetually stuck on "condescending".

I truly love what this show does with Hank Pym as a character since a lot of people associate Hank as a toxic person based on the comics, while yes the character has done a lot of messed up things, that are fairly unforgivable, but Hank in this show is a flawed character, but isn't downright villain or abusive person. Hank tries to help these villains and attempt to rehabilitate them in a more humane way that you don't usually see other heroes do, and despite his noble intentions, thais method won't always work for every villain. They knew that when it came to Hank they had to balance his introverted passive beliefs with his deeply flawed mental state and how we actually sympathise with him and see him struggling after everything that's happened with him especially after Ultron and seeing him lose himself and become Yellow Jacket was sad since weve grown to appreciate his character, even if Yellow Jacket is an identity Hank accepts as who he is now ans its not necessarily a bad thing, just makes him more of a jaded realist but still willing to good and help people.

[@Venxous]

Sums up exactly why I think this is the definitive version of Hank for me

[@MrDj232]

I still kind of hated him in the show. He takes pacifism to such an absurd extreme that he doesn't recognize the value of stopping super powered murderers before they can hurt someone. Sure, he'll put on the suit and punch a Wrecker. But then he'll spend the whole ride back to the mansion whining about how he's supposed to be reforming villains not beating them up. More than once he got in the way and let villains escape because he wanted to talk them down. I can see why this Ultron went nuts when his programming is based on Hank's brain. Also, his absolute refusal to ever admit his feelings for Janet or pay attention to her was infuriating. She's adorable in this series and practically throwing herself at him but the man can't even squeeze out one "I love you" through the whole series. Hulk had a better relationship with Janet than Hank did.

Poor Hank. He was having mental health issues and instead of helping him the Avengers turned their backs on him.

[@alexandrefrauches132]

Glad that EMH was able to adapt Hank Pym. I feel the reason why many people have issue with him isn't bc of the incident where he hit Janet but rather how Marvel treated that event in following years, acting like Pym was always a unlikabe wife-beater instead of man struggling with his inferiority complex (ultimate universe being the biggest exemple). Having Hank being a pacifist that is forced to adapt to the violence in his job was clever idea, and makes Pym fall from grace even more tragic. It also work as harsh lesson for the Avengers, specially Janet. After all they were ones who criticize Pym for trying to being too pacifist and now they have to see their friend become someone they barely know. Wanting to a person to deal with flaws is understantable, but it should never be at cost of the person's positive aspects. There's need to have balance between what person knows and what he/she will learn.

[@sonnypark124]

Hank was never a “wife beater” to begin with, and people take that out of context a lot.

Like not maliciously but there is this nice chipperness to him that is completely unaware of how terrifying he is. Like at the start he kept his villains shrunken in a miniature jail and would pin them under his finger if they go too far or is confused why anyone would be scared of the countless robot aids he has stating “I gave them the heads of ants how is that not comforting”.

[@louisvictor3473]

A relationship with an adult Hank that almost feels like teenagers makes sense, considering he is someone who does not have his multiple mental issues completely handled, speaking as someone who might have finally gotten a better handle on their own issues. A thing I really dislike from the.comics is... the fans and "fans." Hank hitting Janet is obviously not okay, but is obviously not okay and unforgivable as an act in itself, but it is also understandable and shouldn't make him unforgivable as a person. He done fucked up, but he also learned and changed.... at least in the well written stories after that one, which was also a good story. But as with many good things in comics, the aftermath is a buncha idiots (including creators, specially creators) clinging just to the most superficial and visually impressive elements, and ignoring all the equally important subtler ones. The story everyone reinforces/remembers is "Hank beat his wife one time, bad Hank bad", rather than "Hank had a really bad time and fucked up so badly he even hit his wife, and then had to learn and grow as a person to overcome that, but his previous poor self control in the face of an overwhelming personal crisis was not without lasting consequences, such as Jan divorcing him for good; let it be a lesson, try as best as you can to seek help early before too late". The later is great tragic storytelling for all involved even if imo it does end up relatively positively given how low it all went, but the constant pushing of the former really hurts uis character.

Correction graviton didn’t break out of prison Loki did he was the mastermind behind the operation

[@michaelzinck5147]

The more I watch your videos the more I realize that you and I have the same Views about this show, Keep it up!

[@alexrecrem9094]

This show is why im an ant man fan

[@GreenYetti]

ant man really hit him with the Low Teir God

[@Mercuryury]

He delivered! Im loving these videos, will definitely be subscribing to see more!

[@bowserbreaker2515]

I've never been the biggest fan of Ant-Man, so this is easily my favorite. He just keeps getting bad adaptations, except for this show. It still is a little weird though for him to be a pacifist superhero.

[@MrJhound4]

Absolutely agreeing with this title. EMH made Antman one of my Marvel favorites.

[@Lucifer.s.understudy]

this show was my first deep dive into avengers too.

[@Hazmatt4700]

Never watched this show. Your videos on it make it look good.

POOOOKIEEEEEEEE AAAAAAAAA as the number 1 emh hank fan this video is so it yes

[@rifa1673]

I much prefer this version of hank than the wife beater version in the comics and I genuinely like that this show didn't portray his reformist ideas as stupid or something that was impossible. I remember when they teamed up with the villains in the prison which in a way showed us that hank was right these people can be reformed. The pushback hank got for having reformist views wasn't because the show thought criminals couldn't be reformed it was because no one in the avengers cared more for lock the villians up and less for making sure that they have changed for the better.

Correction Thor was just conveniently teleported at the same moment that Ultron blasted him

[@Venxous]

I know Thor wasn’t dead but Hank believed him to be and harbored the guilt for that….plus gotta have something for the Thor vid

[@Just_a_Dragon69]

*Turn ultron into a killing machine* 😈 *Witnes it almost killing millions* 😐 *Doesnt take back the killing mode* 🤦 For a cientist he is not the brightest

[@Ikesaint]

Great video man🙏

[@KillerBlaze]

Yeah, this is the best Ant-man hands down. Period

[@DragonStar524]

Ant man and Wasps relationship is interesting. They're methods of approaching villains aren't necessarily wrong or right. Wasp will go on head on and take action, while Ant Man will only use physical force as a last resort when trying to reach out to a villain as a means of helping doesn't work or if wasp is hurt or in danger.

[@lovelyspoon5413]

As a kid I used to watch this show until it eventually stopped airing where I was from, or I simply missed every time it did after the fact, and one of the last things I saw was a tease that Ultron would either be used as a weapon or that he would turn evil, I don't remember which, which was a bit dark IMO at the time, made only worse by the fact i soon after found and watched avengers heroes of tomorrow. As a kid, I thought the 2 were directly related, with the movie being a direct sequel to the show. Only years later on a nostalgia rabbit hole did I figure out it was just a domino of coincidences that led me to think that. I do still think it would have been a very bold and kinda cool cliffhanger ending for the show, tho.

[@dissonanceparadiddle]

Is amazing how spider man at his best is the best of both Janet and Hank in this show

[@metal87power]

simon was very very stubborn and blinded

[@aliengranpa]

In the 80's i never realized Ant-Man had multiple personality disorder, i just thought he couldn't make up his mind on a superhero name.😂

[@michellima5280]

If I was a villain shrinked by hank, I would only hate him more and more.

[@markdarc0448]

This show is why I was and still am incredibly bummed that they gave us Scott Lang in the MCU. Admittedly I dont know much of anything about his comic version but while I absolutely love seeing Paul Rudd and he's incredibly entertaining, this entertainment is without fulfillment. He's a great comic relief and his relationship with his daughter is fine, but it's nothing compared to hank. We dont get to see hank and Janets relationship struggles, we barely get to see Hank being a pacifist and it's basically boiled down to him being a grumpy stubborn old man. This hank is such an incredible character, and with how popular Paul rudds take on the character is, I worry that we won't ever get to see a good hank again, at least for the foreseeable future

The Hank Pym in Al Ewing’s Ant Man miniseries is the only one that holds a candle to EMH’s

[@CloneScavengerVulpin8389]

In short a hero who wants to do more than hit bad guys.

[@BigdogGaming-sm3lj]

I never liked how Hank was written back in the early 80s. That domestic violence trope really destroyed any type of storytelling one could do with him as a character. This is why it is not good to try to be edgy just because you think it will be cool. The character was destroyed for years by marvel editorial board allowing that. I just wish the MCU Hank pym was written more like the Earth mightiest heroes Hank pym. I don't like what the MCU did to Janet. Emh got her character right.

[@ChristochatBTW]

basically... EMH is peak marvel and JLA is peak dc... no problem with that that's fantastic

[@leocelestial]

Before watching this show, I couldn't care less about Hank Pym. By the time i finished, he was one of my favorite characters.

[@michau540]

Hank pym is my fav avenger, always has been, and ultron just is so much more compelling when he's paired with hank , having him an iron man villain just was a horrible choice in the mcu, hank is so complex I just love emh so much I would die happy if we ever got a season 3. in my dreams smh
