Avengers Origins: Ant-Man & the Wasp #1

This 2012 Marvel one-shot pairs Hank Pym and Janet Van Dyne in a striking cover by Marko Djurdjević, rendered against a cool gray backdrop of molecular and atomic diagrams that nod to the scientific roots of both heroes. Ant-Man stands arms-crossed in his silver helmet and black-and-blue suit, while the Wasp hovers behind him in her red-and-black costume, delicate wings spread and an air of quiet confidence about her. Writer Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa and artist Stephanie Hans team up to bring these two Avengers into sharp focus for a self-contained story that feels both intimate and worthy of the legacy.
