When a low-level S.H.I.E.L.D. agent gets a hold of Hank Pym’s new Ant-Man suit, you know the Marvel Universe is in trouble. He’s not concerned with saving the world or helping others. He’s concerned with getting through the day and getting a leg up on life. He’s not going to use his powers responsibly, he’s going to use them for the betterment of himself.

Luckily Damage Control is on the lookout for someone who can safely sift through rubble for survivors. Don't worry, though—he'll still have plenty of time to spy on the ladies like the despicable human-being that he is. Plus: Why fight super-villains when you can watch attractive ladies take their clothes off in the privacy of their own homes? Our little Irredeemable Ant-Man has got it made! That is, until he realizes that the current subject of his perverted voyeurism is none other than Carol Danvers — otherwise known as Ms. Marvel." - WorldCat - ISBN 0785119639

 * Ant-Man, vol. 1: Second-Chance Man - Collects Ant-Man #1-5. "Scott Lang has never exactly been the world’s best super hero. Heck, most people don’t even think he’s been the best Ant-Man! And the last guy invented Ultron and joined the Masters of Evil, so that’s saying something. But when the Superior Iron Man calls with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and an old enemy returns (sort of), Scott’s going to get a chance to turn it all around and be the hero he’s always dreamed of being." -

And Hench, the super-villain app that’s sending a steady stream of enemies his way. If being a hero is this hard, Scott, why not go back to a life of crime?" -


 * The Astonishing Ant-Man, vol. 2: Small-Time Criminal - Collects Astonishing #5-9. "Scott Lang has his tiny hands full, from one former goliath-sized super hero to a brand new one!

Ant-Man) get home to see his daughter…but a little problem has gotten in the way. Very little. Subatomic, in fact — Scott Lang is lost in the space between molecules! Now Nadia is his only hope of rescue from a subatomic realm…if only he would listen long enough for her to save them!" -


 * Ant-Man: World Hive - Collects vol. 2 #1-5. "Scott Lang is back — and doing better than ever! Er, at least according to him. Ask his daughter, Stinger, and she’ll say otherwise. Desperate to raise Cassie’s opinion of him, Scott takes a job from local beekeepers — only to stumble across a global conspiracy that could topple the world order! But what could put Ant-Man on the same side as Swarm, the Nazi scientist made of bees? Perhaps the most deadly foe Scott has ever faced! With no choice but to call the Avengers, Spider-Man and the Black Cat for help, can Ant-Man convince them to take this threat — and him — seriously? If not, extermination is imminent — and the fate of the world may just fall on the miniature" - - (forthcoming, August 2020)
