a preview?! but my birthday isn't until November! love the inking. wish i could tell what they were saying. that first scene is kind of pointless without words. i feel like captioning it.

I have to confess that unlettered previews rub me the wrong way. It tells me that Marvel expects us to jump at a book because of the pretty art, not because of the story.

That being said, not bad. I'dve been more impressed if these weren't colored versions of pages we saw 2 months ago.

Tim Seeley is the best modern writer/artist in the business right now.

He reminds me of the comic book legend legend Keith Giffen so much.

He can draw just as good as he can write, and this has always been a rare quality to have when it comes to creating superhero comic books over the years.

understood. but i'll take what i can get. the alternative is to wait until a week before to find out what a new book is going to look like. and we do know part of the story from interviews. A.I.M. is going to do something eeeevil with one of Pym's inventions (probably some variation on the tech used to create the infinite mansion). and this somehow endangers Bill Foster's soul and involves a Sleepwalker (a guardian of another dimension).

I miss Eric's original costume.

[Sighphi]

Pym is going to built Black Goliaht a heaven?
Why does he have his soul?
I'm telling you Pym is nuts!!!!
That's why he is using his dead girl's name!!!

I miss Eric's original costume.

keep in mind that he's seeking Pym out to "upgrade" his ant-man suit. so maybe there's a reason why he's been wearing an ugly throwaway costume for months.

i know it's a bit premature but i could really get behind this as an ongoing. i don't know that it'd be the next Cable and Deadpool or anything. but doesn't it make sense for the other Avengers founder to have an ongoing? i don't think hank could pull it off by himself but Eric would make up the difference. A.I.M is a great recurring villain (much like Hydra is in other books). science-based terrorism really hasn't been taken advantage of as a concept. Pym and Eric seemed perfectly poised to tackle it. Pym could use his brain to think up ways to foil A.I.M's plans or investigate other in-universe mysteries. Eric could use his SHIELD training and skill at lying to infiltrate extremist organizations or whatever.

i have some great ideas for Porcupine as a kind of backwoods survivalist/weapons maker. as goofy as he is, there is some potential coolness in a heavy-set bunker building weapons expert walking around with an arsenal vest and gas mask. i figure this would be a relative of the original Porcupine (Gentry). http://media.comicvine.com/uploads/0...671874-po1.jpg

and if you've ever watched that show 'Monsters Inside Me' or 'The X-Files,' you know exactly what i want for a re-invisioned Scarlet Beetle.

for starters, that bug eyed freak needs some rear forceps like the earwig.

secondly i think Scarlet Beetle should evolve into a new form every time they manage to kill it.

I'd like it as an ongoing too. But with Hank going back to the Giant-Man identity what title would you use?

"Giant-Man & Ant-Man" and "Ant-Man & Giant-Man" just sound awkward.

[TonyStark1012]

The art for this is f@#king amazing! I got into Pym after Secret Invasion and have liked what has been done with him so far. I really hope he stays as wasp and of course O'Grady is one of the greatest characters ever created so this book is on my pull list.

[SuperCooper]

Hank Pym and Eric O'Grady hooked me in, but Black Fox sealed the deal.

yeah, that did sort of screw up my plans. maybe he could toggle between 'Giant-Man' in the Academy book and 'Wasp' in his shared solo series. 'Ant-Man and the Wasp' rolls off the tongue easier. or you could just label the series Tales to Astonish.

i've been missing Black Fox too. who knew that all along the character just needed a partner to play Wii with for his greatness to shine?

[the_speedball]

Damn it! This is the book that will break my "No $3.99" rule...well played, Marvel.

Tales to Astonish, duh.

Thank god he's getting rid of this costume. It's wretched.
