A character and a comic with potential... wasted because they focused on characters that nobody cares.

Again with this... I'm surprised she didn't find out it before.

an actual well written moment...for once. Seriously why not start with the Hank Pym stuff that stuff is gold.
>>
>>94364476
OH BOY, couldn't just let the series end without addressing this. Thanks a fucking lot.
>>
>>94364586
Fuck them! I want to be a Van Dyne now...
>>
>>94364615
That looks interesting, too bad Pym on his own already created that about 10 years ago.

Meh
>>
>>94364615
Why didn't she take her mom's last name?
>>
>>94364689
Well, that's all! but don't worry guys, he will write another comic...
>>
>>94364693
Because that isn't synergy, she need to be a Pym or a Van Dyne :P Nadia is Hope in Russian.
>>
>>94364723
Please no.
>>
>>94364069
Any word on when/if Pymtron will meet her?
>>
>>94364597
>an actual well written moment
Hold on. Which part is well written? The part where Marvel overblows the Pymslap yet AGAIN, or the part where the original hero sucks the legacy hero's cock and keeps sucking after they nut?
>>
>>94364256
Did this woman exist before this comic? Or the idea of Nadia. I never followed Pym.
>>
>>94364841
Eh it's well written compared to most of the comic, though I do agree overselling the pymslap is a huge sin that I wish writers would move on from. I'm just glad it was only one page.
>>
With any luck we'll never see any of these lame OCs ever again.
>>
>>94364896
I seriously doubt we ever get to see them again except in another comic book series by the same guy.

Then again, at least the guy gave Nadia some supporting cast so that the next writer that wants her to suffer can kill them all.
>>
>>94364872
Hank had a wife before being an Avenger she was the reason why he even went into super science she died and he continued to do super science because of her
>>
>>94364872
Waid introduced Nadia in Avengers. Then they got Whitley to write this solo shortly after he pitched this "story" and Brevoort approved it.
>>
>>94364872
You mean Pym's first wife? Yes, she existed. She was kidnapped and killed by commies.
>>
>>94364256
Hank's life gets a little rewrite. Before he didn't discover pym particles until after Maria's death.

Seems bit of an odd change.
>>
>>94364612
Are you mad that Hank Pym isn't the super star perfect hero Nadia thinks he is?

Who could have possibly seen this coming???
>>
>>94365072
am I mad that marvel won't let this shit go or at least make it know that the fucker was having a mental breakdown
>>
>>94364872
Yep, Nadia origin makes sense because of that and in fact Pym fell in love with Jan because she looked a lot like Maria.
>>
>>94364841
>overblows the Pymslap yet AGAIN,

Its amazing what people will defend just to justify their hate
>>
>>94365130
What did he mean by this?
>>
>>94365112
Well they did state he was mentally ill at the time
>>
>>94365162
Pym slapping Han has been used for years and years as the number one reason nobody likes him, but now that its in a subpar comic book nobody likesm all a sudden Hank Dindu Nofing
>>
>>94364535

Wait, Hank was aware he was mentally ill? And Hank can be accused of a lot of things, but "pride" just isn't one of them.

How do retards like this get jobs writing comics?
>>
>>94365223
you can't be aware you're mentally ill - specially if it's schizophrenia so powerful it actually made you believe you were a different person that killed the previous you
>>
>>94365223
>Hank was aware he was mentally ill? And Hank can be accused of a lot of things, but "pride" just isn't one of them.

No, she litterally said he was in denial, and pride takes many forms
>>
>>94365198
yeah but I've been hearing complaints about it being the only thing Hank Pym stories are about since the Busiek run and even before than. People have been treating the fact that she has been hit once as the only story they tell with Hank Pym, doesn't help with the Ultimate incarnation that being his defining feature.

>Ultimate incarnation
Didn't this hurt some other characters, like how Shocker became a joke?
>>
This was a nice ending for a crap book.
>>
>A character and a comic with potential

Neither of those things were true.
>>
>>94365364
eh not really there was a period of time when Spider-man villains were treated as jokes, but you could tell who read the stories when someone made fun of the Shocker because they would focus on the costume.

But here was some of the damages some where bigger than others.

Captain America- Some writers tried to adapt the Ultimate Personality but after Ed Brubaker took over unless your name was Warren Ellis people cut it out.

Norman Osborn- A lot of the dark reign characterization comes from the Ultimate version which was Lex Luthor who was also the Hulk.

Nick Fury- Shield is responsible for everything(just count up how much shit they were involved in) and while the movies was responsible for Jr they were trying to work that version of Fury into other universes.

the Fantastic Four-a lot of stupid shit can be placed on trying to make Reed Richards more morally gray and while Hickman did do some solid stuff other writers did not do a good job with the stuff. Ultimate Sue somehow became one of the most toxic characters in comics.
>>
>>94365223

Continuing to push forward and make shitty decisions even after your previous ones have caused untold suffering is a sort of pride, I suppose.
>>
>>94364256
>dat awkward matt
>>
>>94364069

To be fair, "superhero backed up by an Ocean's Eleven of noncombat tech geniuses" isn't a terrible premise.

The problem is that 1) none of Nadia's recruits actually have a personality, and 2) tech innovations aren't interesting when it's a comic book and all the tech is complete bullshit anyway.
>>
>>94364476
Jesus fucking Christ
>>
>>94364535
oh pls. the slap is the only thing people remember about Wasp

well that and being a cunt
>>
>>94364535
this is dumber than anything in America
>>
Whitley is a fucking terrible writer this is inexcusably bad
>>
>>94364535

that was a different episode

>>94365223

Hank being canonically mentally ill (bipolar) is relatively recent i think so this is a little bit of a retcon to explain why it never came up before.
>>
>>94364535
wait, so Hank is responsible for treating his own mental illness? How the hell would he do that? He's mentally ill. He needed help from others.

God, at least EMH Wasp noticed that and pushed the others to help him out. This is just irritating
>>
>>94366639
>Being canonically mentally ill is relatively recent

He was schizophrenic and thought Yellowjacket was another guy that killed Hank Pym

He was under the effect of some different gases the time he tried to take down the Avengers as Ant-Man

Holy shit, you don't know shit about Hank, fuck off
>>
>>94364508
Didn't she give Janet a black eye in the last issue? So it's not okay for hank to slap Janet, but she can?
>>
lol @ this comic being rejected by scholastic, btw. Like sorry, we decided you're just not what we want for our target market of 9-year old girls.
>>
>>94367532
they have standards
>>
>>94366639
I'm guessing this is mostly going off Busiek's Avengers run which tried to explain all the complicated shit with Hank as him having real-deal-not-comic-book mental illness
>>
>>94366687

no I mean like Hank literally coming out and saying he has bi polar disorder and not generic comic crazy

>>94367670

Avengers AI actually

I know I might be nitpicking but something about the backgrounds being completely blank makes me ill, physically ill. Unless it illustrates they're in a simulation or a Korean webcomic, there shouldn't be this much negative background space.
>>
>>94366614

Yet they keep rewarding him with more work. Somehow he's "failed upwards" and is getting a Hulk/Thor team-up book.
>>
>>94365081
I refuse to believe 9,000 people were actively reading this.
>>
>>94368784

Just give me a book to write at this point. I can't do worse.

Dude he wrote Princeless the Disney movie Disney should have made(actual review said this), to them he's like their Alan Moore even if the project is esoteric shit he has the titles to coast on he's one of the progressive indie darlings right now.
>>

he's also a bronyfag &needs to die

he's a bronyfag who other bronyfags hate. It's quite amazing.

This is the Princeless guy? Oh ho ho ho ho ho holy shit I'm kind of sorry I even liked the one issue that was 90% Janet narration now

Yellowjacket, Goliath, Ant-Man, and Giant-Man could have a group therapy session.
>>
>>94369494
I should do a storytime of it one of these days.
>>
>>94365129
I wonder if Ultron is salty that since Maria was dead before he existed that he never got to build a robot based on her brain patterns. Seems a reference that would right up his alley.
>>
>>94368876
That's because you don't understand how sales work, those numbers are retailer orders. Retailers sometimes order more than they actually sell because sometimes they need to have an extra copy in the bin or something.
>>
>>94368375
It's a nitpicky complaint because sometimes you just need to focus on the character and relevant object for effect, and eliminating the background once in a while can work (as long as you've established the backgrounds to begin with)
>>
>>94370312
Don't forget, Marvel ships copies of comics that weren't ordered to retailers (which the retailers have to pay shipping on) and counts them as "sales".
>>
>>94365975
I remember her leading the Avengers at the book's peak.
>>
>>94364069
Did Pymtron ever show up in this book? Pymtron appearing to tell his (their?) side of the story might have actually redeemed this.

Also, how did she not know about the slap? Everyone brings it up once a week.
>>
>>94370472
Sliding time scale. She hasn't been doing stuff for a week yet.
>>
>>94364069
A terrible comic that nobody read that will only be referenced by other terrible comics that nobody will read.

It's a Pym family trait. Hitting a Van Dyne, conveniently Janet, just runs in their blood.

I like the character but some of the issues were not good. Since she appear on champions this week,They probably keep her on the team for a bit

/mlp/ here. Whitley is a complete shit and we've had to put up with him feeding it to us since 2014. If Marvel keeps rewarding him with work that eventually steals him from IDW please take him, you guys are used to SJW infecting Marvel what's one more? Do us this one solid

there's that pointless word
>>
>>94364476
It makes sense that this happened as a character growth moment for Nadia, but heaven knows if as a reader I'm tired of seeing Pymslap being inevitably referenced anytime Hank is mentioned
>>
>>94364477
What if they spent that money om America Chavez instead?
>>
>>94370709
Outside of being Pyms daughter Nadia and Hope aren't all that similar. Nadia isn't even Janets daughter

Also Waid wrote her well outside of Champions
>>
>>94364476
This right here is how you can tell Marvel writers don't read comics. No context, no understand of what the point was, no reference to the fact that Pym was in a mental breakdown. At this point fucking REED has slapped women more than Hank.
>>
>>94364535
I like how this is addressed, but not how Janet would flirt with other men right in front of Hank, or consistently shit on his goals to further his research.
>>
>>94364535
>>94364476
Can't we just erase this part of Hank's history? It doesn't add anything to his character as the Ant-Man movie showed us
>>
>>94364650
>I'm unstoppable
*stops ur comic*
>>
>>94364229
Hank Pym's life just can't stop getting shat on can it? He's a super-scientist and his labs work better without him in it.What the hell marvel?
>>
>>94366675
He is responsible for treating his mental illness and not in the way you think. The Avengers saw he was clearly insane and did nothing so Hank had to invent a machine to cure his own mental illness after so much bad shit happened that he figured out that he was clearly mentally insane.
>>
I miss Pymtron
>>
>>94364535
Bets on when Nadia will finally meet Pymtron and will it actually be well-written?
>>
>>94364069
So I guess she wasn't Unstoppable.
>>
>>94364196

That sounds awful intelligence-ableist of you, shitlord
>>
>>94364689
>what female engineers inspired you?

Who gives a shit about the gender of the engineer??

I'm a medical radiologist (male) who always liked Marie Curie among others, her gender had nothing to do with it, and I didn't need gender-matching in people to look up to them. This reads less like "what women do you admire" and more like "what non-men do you admire", if you catch the subtle difference.
