It's now officially Hope Van Dyne instead of Pym, if anyone was still confused.

I'm still confused! Is she going to suit up as the Wasp in the movie or not? Why is Marvel making Jan into a dead absent mom?

Lol I actually like the costume in AEMH. It's true though that she kicks butt in the show as well. I miss that show. Originally Posted by Art School Dropout

I know, I loved how that show incorporated a large variety of elements and stories from the comics. It's such a shame that it got cancelled.
On a side note, I wish she was in a different Avengers book. Also, the romance with Havok gets a no from me.

Agreed. Whether it's the writer or just the nature of the book, Jan takes a backseat to just about everyone else in UA. She deserves a more prominent role within the Avengers. Originally Posted by Mr. Mermaid

I'm not getting a connection from the romance. Remeder seems to think "oh well since their super heroes they have a low chance of living so they need to screw forget building their friendship lets get these two in the bed!" But than Remender's Uncanny has been a mess since the beginning, hopefully some better will replace him.

She's being fridged. Originally Posted by Centipede Damascus

One thing that bugs me as well (pardon the pun) is that she came across as completely insensitive to the X-Men. It felt very out of character for her. Originally Posted by Hekabolos

Agreed on UA. It frustrates me that so many of my favorite characters are restricted to that title alone and all are suffering for it. While I know that, realistically, the new title Remender has coming out of Axis is probably just UA vol. 2, I'm holding out hope that it's not and the title will be available for someone else to pick up (and fix).

Plus, Wanda is acknowledged as one of her best friends, so for her to come across as insensitive not only to the X-Men but to mutantkind in general seemed incredibly off.

If I absolutely had to argue for it, I suppose Jan's dating history (Hank, Clint, Paladin) suggests that she has a thing for blonds (although given the sheer number of blond men in the Marvel Universe, you would have to be a nun to not have dated at least one). Even with that, though, I could only see Alex being similar to Clint: a fling with a hot guy, not some all-encompassing romance.
