Big plans for Marvel’s smallest hero.

 

At New York Comic Con, Editor-In-Chief Axel Alonso Ant-Man will get a brand new series by writer Nick Spencer (Avengers World, Superior Foes of Spider-Man) and artist Ramon Rosanas.

 

The new series will star Scott Lang (recently part of FF) but Alonso says they “have a plan” for Hank Pym citing the founding Avenger’s long history and saying “he’s valued.”

 

Paul Rudd will play Lang in the Ant-Man movie coming in 2015. Michael Douglas plays Hank Pym.
