Ant-Man: Second-Chance Man

oh my god, this was SO funny. I had several legit LOL moments. (Not surprising, given how funny Nick Spencer's [b:The Superior Foes of Spider-Man, Vol. 1: Getting the Band Back Together 18359975 The Superior Foes of Spider-Man, Vol. 1 Getting the Band Back Together Nick Spencer https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1415141350s/18359975.jpg 25959456] was, but notable.) It really reminds me of [b:Hawkeye, Vol. 1: My Life as a Weapon 16002136 Hawkeye, Vol. 1 My Life as a Weapon Matt Fraction https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1360413248s/16002136.jpg 21502266]–same sort of low-key, down on his luck, lower-tier superhero, with a similar comedic sensibility. I've never read any other Ant-Man comics with Scott Lang, but I did enjoy the movie overall so I picked this up. I think if you liked the humor of the movie, you'd like the book. If you're protesting the movie due to lack of lady characters, I feel you, and this book isn't much better. Actually it's worse. But Cassie is great in it, and Scott and Cassie have some completely delightful moments. I just looked to see if this is ongoing, because it seems to wrap up pretty neatly? But I just googled and it is ongoing! I will keep reading and keep my fingers crossed that some more ladies get involved ASAP. (I'm stalking Nick Spencer's Tumblr and some people have asked if Darla will be involved in future books and he's being coy about it, attn Caroline.)
