Biography

The Human Top

Through the ant network, Giant-Man and the Wasp soon learned of a planned department-store robbery by an infamous but largely small-time criminal known as the Human Top, renowned for his ability to spin at remarkable speeds. The duo were at the department store on time to witness the robbery, and gave chase through the streets. The Top easily outmaneuvered them however, running circles around the clumsy Giant-Man, who hadn't gotten used to moving around in his 12-foot form. Top escaped, and Giant-Man committed himself to training with a robotic replica in his lab for the next several weeks.[1] They soon learned of an explosion at the docks that hit only an old, useless boat—a seemingly pointless event that Giant-Man deduced was meant to draw police to the scene. Searching the city, Giant-Man and Wasp spotted the Top leaving the federal building, having stolen something unidentified. Despite his training, Giant-Man was still unable to catch the criminal, even with some diversionary assistance from Wasp. Meeting with government officials, the two learned that Top had stolen civil-defense plans and was planning on selling them to a communist agent. Unbeknownst to him, the plans were outdated, and the agent was under heavy surveillance. Giant-Man used this to his advantage, getting the jump on Top at the meeting and applying a powerful glue to his gloves to prevent him from escaping his grasp. With that, the Human Top was at last brought to justice.[2] Soon after, the Hulk joined forces with Namor the Sub-Mariner to fight the Avengers on a remote island, but the two were eventually fought off, and Hulk went into hiding.[3] The Avengers then found the legendary hero Captain America frozen in the sea on their way back to New York, and the five of them teamed up to fight Namor once more. Cap officially joined the Avengers afterward.[4]

Flight of the Black Knight

Giant-Man soon captured research scientist Nathan Garrett, who had been selling scientific secrets to communist China. Weeks later, Wasp told him of an armored Black Knight flying through the skies of New York aloft a winged horse who had robbed an armored car and continued to threaten the city. Pym was doubtful of Wasp's fantastic story, but news reports and his ant network soon corroborated it. Giant-Man investigated and soon found that the Black Knight was attempting to jack a helicopter in mid-flight. An Air Force plane lifted Giant-Man to the chopper to defend against the Knight, but the bizarre villain tied him up with long bola balls. He explained that he was Nathan Garrett, and had been bailed out of jail by the communists and fled to Europe. There he developed various weapons held within his lance, as well as a separate "paralyzer pistol," and a genetically engineered flying horse. As Giant-Man hung from the rail of the helicopter, Black Knight shot him with an "itch-ray," forcing him to drop. Giant-Man's one free hand fed himself an ant-size capsule as Wasp flew in and rescued him. The two landed on the back of the Knight's horse, and Pym made himself normal-sized to fight the awkwardly positioned Garrett. He knocked the villain's lance away, and soon the Knight and the heroic duo were struggling atop his winged horse. Eventually, Pym's ability to change size repeatedly was enough to frighten away the Black Knight, who vowed to return and defeat Giant-Man one day.[5]

Return of the Porcupine

Not long after, Giant-Man and the Wasp were giving a public performance of their powers, when they were suddenly attacked from afar by an onslaught of flying quills. The two were knocked from their position high off the ground; Wasp was able to shrink and fly away, but Giant-Man landed on his feet, fracturing an ankle. The culprit of the attack had left as soon as they had arrived. After the injury had been treated, Giant-Man was forced into inaction as it healed: he couldn’t even change his size for fear of injuring it further. He spent much of his rehabilitation in a loft that the two heroes had rented downtown, using it as a combination gymnasium and laboratory. One day they were visited by a local fan club, with each of the members dressed as one of their former foes. One fan was dressed as the Porcupine, and asked Wasp to go down to his car to get a gift for Giant-Man. She obliged, but after she had gone, the Porcupine "fan" released a sleeping gas from his quills, revealing himself to be the true Porcupine. The other fans, mostly teenage boys, were knocked out in seconds, while Giant-Man's larger frame allowed him a greater resistance. The injured but still remarkable Giant-Man used the various equipment in the room to spin at great speeds, thinning out the gas. Porcupine escaped, declaring that he had taken Wasp prisoner: indeed, Wasp had fallen prey to a trap in Porcupine's car, and he drove off with her in tow. Giant-Man exhausted several attempted solutions to find her, but she simply returned herself later that day. She had been followed, however, by a special flying quill that had sent her location back to Porcupine in real time. The villain soon arrived, and while Wasp was quickly incapacitated with flypaper, the injured Giant-Man did his best to fend the Porcupine off. Porcupine's hubris eventually got the best of him, as he grabbed several capsules from Giant-Man's belt and downed them all at once. He thought that they were enlarging capsules, but they were in fact for shrinking. The Porcupine shrunk unceasingly, until he eventually blipped out of sight.[6]

The communist reign of El Toro

Giant-Man and Wasp were soon contacted by government officials for a private meeting in Washington. The heroes were told of El Toro, a communist who had recently won a presidential election in the usually democratic Santa Rico in a landslide. The U.S. suspected foul play, and asked the heroes to investigate for signs of a communist plot. Hank and Janet arrived in Santa Rico disguised as tourists, but this proved to be an utter failure. Hank handed Janet the size-changing capsules in case he was searched, but the suspicious Toro's men instead took Janet captive. She tossed Hank a capsule, which he used to become Giant-Man. Toro himself appeared and charged Giant-Man with his special horned headgear extended, knocking him silly as Janet was taken away. Giant-Man realized that he couldn't transform back, leaving him with no way to hide as he searched for Janet across the city. Clumsily evading soldiers through the streets, Giant-Man eventually found respite on a rooftop as darkness fell that evening. He contacted the ants in the city, who informed him of Wasp's location in a ship off the coast. Giant-Man found and rescued her, attaining full control of his size once more. The two shrunk and hitched a ride to the capitol building, where they fought off Toro and found evidence that he had bought votes with outside communist money. The heroes revealed these papers to the public, who ousted Toro as leader and returned the country to democracy.[7]

The Human Top regroups

Giant-Man and Wasp soon learned of the Human Top's escape from prison and a subsequent bank robbery. When they arrived at the bank, the Top had escaped with a "small fortune" in cash. As the two returned home, they were quietly followed by the Top himself, who broke into their home and stole Giant-Man's capsule belt. Top made himself large, tossing Pym into a closet and locking it behind him. Wasp made herself small, but Top managed to capture her inside a jar and escape with her hostage. Giant-Man contacted some nearby ants who brought him a shrinking capsule, allowing him to escape under the closet door. Pym claimed a spare capsule belt and flew after the Top on a flying ant, becoming Giant-Man once more and confronting him on a rooftop. Wasp escaped from the jar, and following Giant-Man's instructions, employed a group of termites to weaken the ceiling underneath the Human Top. The fall knocked him unconscious, and Wasp slipped him a shrinking capsule to return him to normal size, allowing the two to easily bring him to custody. By the time of this mission, Hank and Janet's relationship had become playfully affectionate without being overtly romantic.[8]

The Magician

Hank's affection for Janet was stronger than he let on, however, as he soon decided to propose to her. When she returned home early that evening, he didn't get a chance to do so, as she was heading out to a party hosted by her lifelong friend, wealthy playboy Sterling Stuyvesant. Janet herself had become impatient over the fact that Hank hadn't proposed, and used the possibility that Sterling might do so himself as a way to make him jealous and get him to hurry up. Hank was frustrated and ashamed, but submitted to the idea that a full-time marriage was a fool's notion, given his responsibilities as Giant-Man and with the Avengers. Shortly after Janet had left, Hank got a message from his ant network notifying him of an entertainer called the Magician at Stuyvesant's building. Though nothing seemed amiss, Hank knew that the ants wouldn't notify him unless something was up. Indeed, the Magician turned out to be a criminal, as he added to the usual stage-magic tricks by attempting to rob all the attendees. Janet turned into the Wasp and confronted the Magician, but he trapped her in a trap compartment inside his cane. Hank arrived as Ant-Man shortly afterward and heard of what had happened before returning to his lab to search for the Magician. The ant network turned up nothing, so Pym instead decided to replicate the Magician's last target by throwing a phony high-society party. He rented a yacht and set it up so that it seemed a true party was happening, but he was the only one there. The Magician soon did take the bait, but upon being confronted by Giant-Man, escaped via his getaway blimp. Giant-Man received a message through his antennae that Wasp was safely aboard that blimp, and was able to transform into Ant-Man to climb a rope up to it. He freed Wasp and fought the Magician while Wasp let out the air from the blimp, causing it to crash into the river. Ant-Man was able to fly out on a paper airplane, while Magician was recovered from the water and taken into custody by the police.[9]

Adventures with the Avengers

The Avengers went on to search for Hulk through the southwest,[10] only to find that he had come to New York seeking revenge on them. The Avengers returned to New York and teamed with the Fantastic Four to bring Hulk under control. In the end, Rick Jones proved to be the deciding factor, feeding Hulk an anti-gamma pill that caused him to transform back into Bruce Banner as he fled.[11] A few days later, the Avengers stopped an attempted attack by the Lava Men in the southwest (fighting the Hulk once more along the way).[12] Returning to New York, they fought off a team of supervillains led by Baron Zemo called the Masters of Evil, including Giant-Man and Wasp's recent foe the Black Knight.[13]

Egghead's Spider-Man deception

Perhaps realizing that Wasp's effectiveness in battle could be improved, Hank developed a highly compressed air gun that would attach to her arm as a sort of "stinger." Soon after, the two received an alert from the ant network claiming that the hero Spider-Man was seeking out Giant-Man to destroy him. Hank asked Wasp to track down Spider-Man and report back. Eager to use her new weapon, Wasp tracked down Spider-Man and fired it at him, unintentionally knocking him from his web-slinging patrol of the city. Spider-Man righted himself and used his keen senses to capture his tiny foe in a web. Wasp radioed Hank for help, and he quickly arrived on the scene as Giant-Man, pitting his size against Spider-Man's supreme agility as more and more police came in a vain attempt to stop the fight. But soon, Giant-Man received a message from the ants informing him that Egghead was unloading stolen goods in a warehouse nearby. He and Wasp made haste with Spider-Man in tow, easily defeating Egghead and his cronies with their combined forces. It became clear that Egghead had used his own ant-communication technology to coerce their initial warning, causing a fight between Giant-Man and Spider-Man and distracting the police from his crime across town. After many months in hiding, Egghead was at last brought to justice.[14]

The threat of the Colossus

Continuing to develop useful scientific innovations, Dr. Pym discovered a way to trigger a change in size through thought impulses in one's cybernetic helmet rather than consuming a size-changing capsule. Soon after, Captain America arrived at Pym's lab to inform Giant-Man and Wasp of reports of a massive being in Africa called the Colossus, said to be thirty feet tall. He lived at the top of a tall peak and had begun to demand human sacrifices from the natives. Giant-Man and Wasp traveled to the area by jet, approaching the peak with Colossus atop it. The heroes tried several methods of throwing him off-balance, but nothing seemed to work. Giant-Man desperately decided to grow to Colossus' size, meeting him eye-to-eye at thirty feet. This proved entirely ineffectual, as Giant-Man became too weak and dizzy at such an enormous size to do anything. He went back down to typical Giant-Man size, but the Colossus grabbed him and carried him toward a large egg-like object in the distance. But a Wasp air blast and a sudden ant-size shrinkage from Giant-Man caused the creature to become baffled and terrified. He stepped into what turned out to be a spaceship and flew off in terror.[15] Soon after, Baron Zemo, who had escaped imprisonment during his first encounter with the Avengers, aligned with Asgardians known as the Enchantress and the Executioner to attempt to defeat the heroes once more. Thor sent them through a space warp, launching them to a random place in the multiverse.[16]

Persuading the Hulk

At a meeting of the Avengers, the team studied newsreel film of the Hulk's recent battle with Spider-Man.[17] Giant-Man was quietly frustrated that the Avengers had lost him from their team, and he and Wasp traveled to New Mexico to find him and ask him to reconsider. They arrived at the missile base where the Avengers had faced the threat of the Living Stone, and spoke to General Thunderbolt Ross and a conspicuously annoyed Bruce Banner, but they offered no useful information. But as the two explored the towns nearby, the Hulk did emerge, and Giant-Man was able to evacuate a small town in time for their inevitable fight to begin. Giant-Man did his best to speak with the Hulk peacefully, but the rampaging beast was entirely uninterested. The two fought until military forces led by General Ross fired a small atomic shell at the evacuated city. The airborne Wasp saw this occur, and warned Giant-Man in time for him to react. Hulk was confident he might survive the blast, but wanted to defeat Giant-Man himself, and so jumped high into the air and caught the shell, tossing it as far away as he could. It exploded in a large but harmless blast, though the powerful shockwave caught Hulk and knocked him to the ground, returning him to Bruce Banner in the distance. Giant-Man and Wasp returned home: Hank was disappointed that he couldn't recruit the Hulk, but Wasp took solace in the fact that Hulk's selfless act demonstrated that he had some good in him.[18] Back in New York, the two spotted the villainous Chameleon in an incomplete Captain America disguise, observing a fight between Iron Man and the real Cap. He had tricked Iron Man into thinking that his ally was an impostor, but Giant-Man put a stop to it by grabbing and presenting the Chameleon and bringing him to justice.[19]

The Beasts of Berlin

Giant-Man received a message from Lee Kearns, an ex-FBI ally of his from years ago, concerning a potential superweapon being developed by the Soviet Union in East Germany. A week later, Kearns had been captured and was set to be executed—Pym speculated that Kearns had gone to investigate the weapon himself. Hank was adamant that he should save Lee, as well as about leaving Janet behind—he didn't want to risk her dying in communist territory as his wife Maria had. Pym shrunk into Ant-Man and used the network of ants in East Berlin to locate Kearns's cell. He came in through the small window and freed Kearns, who informed him that the "weapon" was a ray that granted great intelligence to animals. The communists were planning to use the ray to give gorillas the intelligence of a human, making them supreme soldiers. The one weakness to the plan was that they had somehow found the ray rather than creating it, meaning they had yet to duplicate it—if Pym and Kearns could manage to destroy it, the plan would be foiled. Kearns led Pym to where the ray was held and was currently being demonstrated on six gorillas by a group of scientists for communist military men. Pym used his varying sizes to fight and maneuver his way to the ray and pointed it to the humans, making them behave in a primitive manner. The ray in fact simply "reversed" someone's intelligence rather than increasing it. Pym flew an ant around the gorillas and tied them up, and soon discovered that the ray's effects had worn off: they had to be renewed every so often to continue working. Nonetheless, Pym destroyed the ray and escaped with Kearns in tow, slamming his way through the Berlin Wall into West Germany and safe asylum before flying home.[20]

Egghead and the android

One day, Hank and Janet received a letter from a producer who was interested in doing a film series on the two, featuring the heroes as themselves. After much cajoling from Janet, Hank agreed to do it. They arrived at the "studio" specified in the letter to find a dark, abandoned warehouse. They were attacked by a twelve-foot android, which directly matched up to Giant-Man in size. An amplified voice from within the android announced itself as Egghead, recently escaped from prison. Egghead declared that the air in the locked building would run out within an hour. Giant-Man and Wasp battled the automaton, and eventually Giant-Man grabbed the android by the legs and spun it such that its controller Egghead became unbearably dizzy, desperately releasing the lock on the door and allowing their escape. With Egghead out of commission, the mindless android wandered out of the building and off of a pier to its demise.[21] Also around this time, the Avengers repeled an attempted invasion by the time-traveling Kang, and fought back the Masters of Evil once more with the help of the duplicitous Wonder Man, who died shortly thereafter.[22][23]

The impostor Giant-Man

While conducting an experiment in rapid plant growth, Pym's subject plant began to grow out of control, growing exponentially and becoming colossal in moments. Pym managed to shrink to ant size and sever the tap root, seemingly ceasing its growth, but by then it had grown several buildings across. Experimenting further with the serum, Pym made a mistake, creating a volatile mix that exploded and sent him flying across the room, knocking him unconscious. While Pym was knocked out, by a freak chance, a criminal named Second-Story Sam who had just escaped from an attempted burglary climbed into Pym's apartment window via the overgrown plant. Pym lay unconscious, in the Giant-Man suit but unmasked, allowing Sam to discern his true identity. Sam propped Pym up in the closet and took and donned the Giant-Man costume, allowing him to use the Giant-Man powers. Moments later, Janet arrived at the apartment, and Sam dashed out of the building to her confusion. Wasp later left as well, responding to a jewelry-store robbery. Pym was stirred back to life by a ringing phone from the mayor, who called to inform him that the plant was still growing—Pym had apparently overlooked another tap root somewhere. Pym suddenly realized the absence of his suit, and urgently contacted Wasp, who was fighting the ant-sized Sam at the jewelry store. The distraction allowed Sam to escape, but Pym sent out a flying ant to grab him and bring him to his lab. Once there, Sam attempted to fight back, but Pym easily took him down and reclaimed his suit. He then used some memory-loss serum on Sam, forcing him to forget not only Giant-Man's identity but even his life of crime. Pym then teamed with the ants around the city to sever the other tap root and stop the giant plant for good, and reunited with Wasp once more.[24] Also around this time, the Avengers fended off the Masters of Evil and the mysterious Immortus, though the Enchantress used a spell to reverse time such that these events essentially never happened.[25] The Avengers further followed what Thor called an evil presence in Europe, which turned out to be the alien Lucifer, though they eventually left his defeat in the hands of the X-Men.[26]

The racket of the Wrecker

One day, Giant-Man and Wasp were visited in their apartment by a police officer, who told them that the police chief requested their presence at the station. There, the chief told them of a gang leader known as the Wrecker who had extorted protection money out of a number of establishments in Brooklyn. The chief asked for the heroes' assistance in bringing the Wrecker down with their own unorthodox methods. Hank and Janet, out of their superhero garb, traveled to one of the few stores in the area who refused to pay the Wrecker, and offered to buy the hardware store from the owner. The man eagerly did so, terrified of the threat of the Wrecker. It took no time at all for the Wrecker's men to hear of this purchase and confront Hank and Janet at the store with a protection contract, but the unassuming-looking heroes used their superior ability to beat up the gangsters and send them packing. Soon after, the Wrecker himself, donning a hood, came with an entourage of criminals and attacked the store themselves, but Giant-Man and Wasp were there to meet them. They defeated Wrecker and his cronies, allowing the police to arrive and take them into custody, but Wasp was knocked unconscious in the brawl. Giant-Man resuscitated her, and when she came to, he kissed her out of passion and relief. The police unmasked the Wrecker, revealing him to be the same man who sold Hank and Janet the hardware store.[27]

Attuma and the Atlanteans

Pym began developing a giant robot ant with the goal of studying ant behavior without using live specimens. So focused was he on his task that he treated Janet with careless cruelty, not realizing how mean he was being until the job was done. When he went to tell Janet of his success, he found a note declaring that she wanted "a clean break." Hank was distraught, frustrated with himself that he had treated Janet that way and now she was gone. Not long after, he received an urgent distress signal from a flying ant, and sprung into action as Giant-Man. Taking a small personal plane to a deserted island in the Atlantic, Giant-Man found a large treaded vehicle operated by Atlanteans that held Janet within. Fighting off the Atlanteans, Giant-Man reached his estranged partner and gave her her Wasp equipment. The two teamed up and fought the Atlanteans led by the warlike Attuma, who had taken Janet to study her as a preemptive measure to prepare for an attack on the unknown surface world. The heroes took down Attuma and the Atlanteans, using their changing sizes and uncanny swiftness to throw their undersea foes off-guard. So shocked was Attuma by the humans' bizarre powers that he claimed to be scared off of ever attempting to attack the surface world again. Later, Hank humbly asked Janet to come back to him, and she accepted, realizing anew that she needed him also.[28] Also around this time, while Iron Man was away from the Avengers investigating the apparent death of Tony Stark, the team were approached by a fake, robotic Spider-Man sent back in time by Kang. It led them into a trap in Mexico, but the robot was trailed and defeated by the real Spider-Man, foiling Kang's plans.[29]
