Hank Pym is the Avenger Aquaman.

One of Hank's useless powers is talking to ants. Aquaman talks to marine animals. Both of these powers are useless unless the writer shoehorns some scenario to suddenly validate them.

Aquaman has a lot of significance in Atlantis, a place the other heroes almost never visit. Hank Pym has the microverse. Hank's microscale universe is just as pointless in a team book as 'under the ocean' except when the entire story is predicated around going there.

Hank Pym can shrink. Aquaman can swim and control fish. These powers make them the also rans on teams with Thor, Iron-Man, and the Hulk or Martian Manhunter, Super-man, and Wonder-Woman.

Aquaman's other power is being pretty strong, but he's on a team with Wonder-Woman and Superman who completely outclass him. Hank Pym is strong when he grows, but he's on a team with Thor and Hulk, who can be much stronger while remaining relatively normal sized and not having to constantly worry about their heart exploding.

Aquaman looks inadequate next to the rest of the justice league. Hank Pym became Giant Man because he felt inadequate next to the other Avengers.

Aquaman had his hand cut off and replaced with a trident or something. Hank Pym merged his body with Ultron, I guess. That's probably not the strongest finish for this important treatise on who the real Avengers Aquaman is, but I think I still made a pretty good case overall.

Well you sure took the comparison to a very parallel and literal level, which is nice and you make sense, but I believe the original comparison was basically "lovely annoying hero that no one really cares about i.e Cycleps."

More than likely going with the idea that he is in high school, and in fact a teenager. It's curious why he always has this stigma of being a teen attached to him. He is only in high school for 30 issues of the original run of Amazing Spider-Man. So they effectively started him off as a sophomore in high school (which is about 15) and in real time let him age until he graduated. In issue #31 he starts his first day at college (ESU), which is the first appearance of both Gwen Stacy and Harry Osborn. It's curious how characters like Gwen and Harry both don't show up until he is in college, but numerous later versions of Spider-Man mash the concept of Peter being in high school and still being friends with Harry. Mary Jane isn't introduced until issue #42, which is well into his college experience, yet she too is always present in his various high school versions.

You'd think Betty Brant would be a little more well known, considering she was Peter's main love interest for the entire time he was in high school. But Spider-Man needed drama, so Betty eventually got married off to Ned Leeds. Betty blamed Spider-Man for her brother's death so Peter had to internally deal with the fact that the girl he likes hates his guts, and he had to continually lie to her. So things had to end.

I'll have you know that cycleps is a role model for clinically depressed people that feel like they're a good person deep down but have grown increasingly angry and violent in their young adulthood.

It's the Spider-Signal. He pretty much only uses it from issues #1-39 (Ditko's run). He basically just used it to shine on criminals and scare them, sort of like a Bat Signal but right into their face. When Romita took over with issue 40 they pretty much completely dropped that aspect of his costume. In issue #148 he suddenly remembers he has it (9 years later lol), and uses it as a spotlight in a pitch black building so he can see while fighting the Tarantula (who was really hired by the Jackal, revealed to be Peter's former high school biology teacher that took skin cells from Gwen Stacy and Peter in high school and proceeded to create the very first Gwen Stacy clone, 27 issues[2 years] after her death. Also the first Spider-Man/Peter clone that he has a battle with. They both think they are the real Spider-Man because obviously clones grow with the same memories and each thinks they are the true Peter Parker). I was going to whip up the CBR and screen grab the fight sequence cause it's actually pretty cool but ultimately he just shoves the dude out the window and into the daylight.

e: I did it anyway because I'm a huge fag





Writers'll whip it out once in a blue moon even in comics coming out today. The Spider-Signal owns because it's good for basically only one thing, and actually kind of sucks at doing even that.

e: And don't even get me started on the Spider-Mobile.
