Ant-Man

Ant-Man is patriarchy approved. (both the pre-Secret Wars comic & the movie).

Movie Scott Lang is in jail because he was a whistle blower/do-gooder. He's a loving divorced father so his harpy ex-wife, who is living in a big house with her new cop-husband, still tries to bleed Scott for money she doesn't need by using his daughter as a bargaining chip. Hank Pym is also a loving father & protects his own daughter, Hope Pym, by putting Scott in danger instead of her. Scott says as a result: "I'm disposable" but because Scott is also a father, he understands why Hank is protecting his daughter. The movie has Men doing what's necessary to save the day.
 
Go see it.
 
don't get married!
Comic book Scott Lang is a loving divorced father so his harpy ex-wife still tries to bleed Scott for money by using his daughter as a bargaining chip. She moves to Florida without warning but he also moves to Florida, to be there for his daughter. The comic is also pretty funny.

Go buy it.

The lesson to be learned from both versions of Ant-man (& all the links) is:

Don't

Get

Married.

      It was funny, like the movie & it only lasted a few issues because Secret Wars took over all the titles.

    I read the comic collection yesterday. Its really good. I am a bit surprised the writer was allowed to depict a spiteful woman in this current climate.

      me too, more evidence the SJWs don't actually read comics, just watch movies & look at covers.
