Hank clearly hit Janet, I imagine there are probably a great deal of things that the writers had intended but were changed via artist misinterpretation or an executive creator stepping in and altering it for whatever reason. Reasons aside, I don't see the need to defend what happened, I greatly dislike the character for having done it, but I also respect that Marvel did it this way. Making him that much more flawed makes him that much more human. That's why I prefer Marvel to DC, the characters have human flaws so they have human developments: alcoholism, domestic abuse, double-life issues, etc. Imagine how much more boring it would be if Spider-Man had absolutely no pressure being a non-hero like Superman, here's a spoiler: that would be boring as hell. So I say we need these characters to have flaws and be human.
