Last week, things finally started trickling in...I've been too busy to comment about most of the things that were written on this thread, I could only read. I don't even have the time for proper pics, but I threw some things together very quickly. I'll likely revisit many of these pics when I get a breather...

Quick catch up on some comments: Antman's major enemy was Ultron. Contrary to what Avengers AOU would have you believe, Hank created him...there seemed to be some confusion about that. Someone mentioned Egghead, which is true, but I don't really think of him when I think of significant foils for Hank. Misty Knight has been a Marvel Universe mainstay for over four decades. My first introduction to her was as the long-term girlfriend of Danny Rand. It struck as profound as a kid because it was the only interracial couple I'd witnessed in comics at the time. She was also part of a Kung-fu trio: Daughters of the Dragon. Being a long term Heroes for hire fan, I'm very happy to have her. This current White Tiger is ok, but I'd much rather have the original: Hector Ayala (her older [deceased] brother). Hector wore all three 'Amulets of Power' (formerly worn by the Sons of the Tiger, individually). Again, I was introduced to Sons of the Tiger, and Hector by extension, through Heroes for hire. Danny sparred with them (SoT) often. The Sons of the Tiger had social relationships with the Daughters of the Dragon where they would occasionally interact with one another (it seems like all the 'Kung-fu' people know each other in Marvel). my first experience with Hector as the White Tiger was in team-up book with Spidey...whew that was mouthful (keyboardful) there...

I feel you, Kirathis. One wave and SDCC set later...and still no proper Guardians of the Galaxy. Still waiting for Adam Warlock, Mantis, Bug, Groot with clothes on, and Cosmo. I also like Major Victory, Jack Flag, Moondragon, and Phyla...





...all that's left now are my Hulkbuster and Ultron waves...
