    Yeah, Jacosta is fun, but I refuse to call Hank "Wasp". That's just ridiculous.

    Ya i'm with you there; I'm still waiting for someone to smack him upside the head and just stare him down with the "are you &#%in' serious?!" look in their eyes.

    And Hank was an abusive tool.  ¬_¬   get rid.
    & They didn't really show much of Janet, maybe they should make her more central if she ever came back.

    Well ya, I agree that if she does come back that they should really try and do something with her, i don't know what though. My point with Hank is that all of his flaws make him an interesting character. All the conflicting things good or bad that he has done swing your opinion of him, and thats why they wrote him like that; to get an emotional response from the reader. With Janet there was never any of that, she just seemed useless to me. Aside from her character; whenever she was useful in a fight, it always seemed to be one of those "oh thats convenient" situations for her to use her powers. Wolverine is the feral samurai berserker, Cap is a leader and tactician, Janet was the slightly distracting annoyance. BUT that's just how I see it.

    @LT1085:  Maybe, if she comes back from the dead, she'll be a lot tougher. [: & kick ass more.   Janet wasn't useless, she kept a moral compass throughout, she differed from the usual Marvel women, Like Jean, Emma, Storm, Ms Marvel,   you know, the fearless, superpowered, ass-kicking independant women, While Janet wasn't as 'out there', she was still reliable and a down to earth character. She didn't have the best powers in the Avengers, but they were suitable for her and did come useful,  they didn't really show much of her using the Growth aspect of her powers ... which is why some people like Ant-Man.    & that's how I see it, lol.

    I know what you mean, but in the marvel universe that seems to be a prerequisite for survival. Mediocrity kills.
