5.0 out of 5 stars The "Master of Many Sizes" finally gets his due!, Mar 1 2003

This review is from: Essential Ant-Man (Paperback)

This most neglected character of Marvel's Silver Age--who initially was on a par with Thor, Iron Man, Spidey et al in that he had his own series, is finally showcased for all to see.

Giant Man is my favorite character in all of Marvel and the Wasp is right up there too. It is hard for me to describe why I like them so much; maybe its the fact that others could care less about them. But if you are at all curious about them I would encourage you to give this book and these characters a try. The stories are fun, fast-paced and a perfect example of what Marvel was putting out at the time. Take a growth capsule and enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Quirky, offbeat, nostalgic, comic fun! & Jack Kirby TOO!, Jun 28 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Essential Ant-Man (Paperback)

This book is a great collection of fun, oddball, comics. Featuring a character that was obviously a creator favorite, given the many revamps. They just couldn't give up on the guy! Many of these stories have been quite hard to come by, even for hardcore fans, unlike the old FF or Spiderman or other more popular characters who have all been reprinted more frequently.

Wild, silly villains and the black & white format not only keeps the price down but gives you a great opportunity to see the quality of the cartoonists line work, apart from the primitive coloring of the time. Any work by Jack Kirby is worth Five stars!

I think I can see why this feature was finally cancelled. Ant-Man/Giant-Man had just about the worst roster of villains of all the early Marvel heroes. Read more
