Marvel Premiere #48

This 1979 Marvel Premiere spotlight on Ant-Man wastes no time making the stakes clear — a desperate speech bubble warns that a little girl's life hangs in the balance as a miniaturized Ant-Man rides a flying ant straight into a hulking, grimacing villain being swarmed by his insect brigade, needles and ants pressing in from every direction. The bold cover tagline "Charge of the Ant Brigade!" perfectly captures the overwhelming, David-versus-Goliath energy that Dave Cockrum penciled and Bob McLeod inked against a striking yellow backdrop. With interior work from David Michelinie and John Byrne, this is a sharp, energetic package that shows Scott Lang's Ant-Man at his scrappy, resourceful best.
