Janet Van Dyne: The Winsome Wasp Appreciation 2021

[QUOTE=Phoenixx9;5580708]Not true. I remember Man-Killer.

She is Katrina Van Horn. She "died", was brought back, disappeared, then went by Amazon for a while before returning to her Man-Killer name. Yeah, I remember her.[/QUOTE]

I was joking

[QUOTE=Mik;5580768]I was joking[/QUOTE]

Oh. Sorry, lol.

Jan is a much "bigger" star to have in the book than Man-Killer, especially if she is no longer growing as her powerset. And as a parody of the JL, an Avengers character would fit better.

No, it's ok. I think your idea probably would fit better but Marvel probably wants to use Jan's popularity

[QUOTE=Cruelrain;5580618]Darkhold Alpha is finally coming this september[/QUOTE]

Finally! It will be so great to see Wasp back in action again! I'm looking forward to the Wanda spotlight as well, but Jan is the one I am most excited for!

I forgot Jan was in that too! Finally be able to see her and Wanda in something again :D.

I liked that Wasp costume.

Thor lifting a 1000 pound weight seems like a ridiculously low amount.....unless Thor is not as strong as touted?

This is the kind of fun character interaction I miss with the team...

[center]Me too. An all-time fave would be this classic from [B][I]Avengers #60[/I][/B] (January, 1969):

Ah, yes, a favorite! The Wedding of Hank and Jan, alias YellowJacket and the Wasp!

I love the art, the wording, the BK's Replica to cut the cake, the X-men and the Torch and Thing cameos! The Things's cigar-chomping and thought bubble are so character-consistant. It is details like this that are so missing in today's comics.

[center]To the utmost, I agree. Thought bubbles aren't even being used anymore, right?

Exactly. This is why I want to see them NOT always fighting super-villains. Show us them as people doing people stuff.
