“Prelude to Disaster!”

Marvel Feature #8 (March 1973) spotlights the Astonishing Ant-Man in a cover by Jim Starlin and Mike Esposito that packs in a full cast: a tiny Ant-Man rides an ant through a chaotic street-level scene while the Wasp — wings spread, "W" emblem visible — dodges the massive, snarling Creature from Kosmos looming above them, and a ghostly figure watches over it all. The cover blurb promises a retelling of the Wasp's origin, making this an issue that delivers both pulse-quickening action and a look back at Marvel's early 1960s storytelling. With interior work from talents including Jim Starlin, Jack Kirby, and Stan Lee among others, this is a genuinely satisfying package for any fan of Marvel's Ant-Man mythology.
