Marvel Masterworks: Ant-Man & Giant-Man Vol 1 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This book reprints the Ant-Man/Giant-Man stories from Tales to Astonish #27 to #52, in a high quality hardcover book in color.Ant-Man was the unsung hero of the early Marvel Comics.He didn't sell as well as the other heroes, so a female partner, the Wasp, was added to his comic.That didn't help sales too much, so he was changed from Ant-Man to Giant-Man.He still didn't catch on, so he was replaced by the Sub-Mariner in Tales to Astonish #70.But these comics are still historically important, since Ant-Man and the Wasp were founding members of the Avengers.Quality wise, the comics aren't as good as, say, Spider-Man or the Fantastic Four, but they are still quite enjoyable.Fans of early Marvel Comics should dig it.
