Mention the Incredibles version?


Thanks for omitting that sickening portion where she had the affair with Hawkeye. This was as odious and idiotic a piece of garbage passing itself as writing as ever seen in the pages of the Avengers. Not only was it utterly out of place, it made NO SENSE. In over 30 years of ESTABLISHED history, these two never had even a glimmer of that kind of relationship, and bottom line, it was a betrayl of their teammate. NEITHER would ever have done such a thing.

Well, she did do such a thing, like it or not. I don't think it should be emphasized, as it is just more of Austen's terrible writing, but it can't be forgotten, either. A passing mention seems fair enough.--Erikacornia 23:12, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

I seem to remember the Wasp having some powers of her own before Hank got ahold of her. Didn't Hank use her cells in his experiments to create the Pym Particles? 12.106.111.10 13:49, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

You're probably thinking of Ultimate Wasp. Her entry is near the bottom of the page. CovenantD 16:45, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Giant-Girl

Where is it said that Giant-Girl is Janet Van Dyne? I haven't seen her named in the book and I've read rumours that she may be Cassie Lang, or a completely new superheroine.

I can only give one reference, but it's to Janet as Giant Woman, not Giant Girl. Avengers #77/492 (March 2004) the issue with the special 50 cent cover price, part one of the "Lionheard of Avalon" arc, has her using her powers to grow giant (which I'd never seen her do before) and later in the issue she's called Giant Woman twice by Thunderball of the Wrecking Crew. Later she shrinks down to Wasp size. Whether any of this is explained in another issue I never read or forgot about or just occured sometime off panel, I have no idea.--RandomNobody1234 06:54, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Insect Wasp?

At the risk of getting yelled at... I just got a series of comics called "Avengers Unplugged", where it's mentioned that Wasp had some sort of accident, went into a coma, turned into a cocoon, and then came out looking like a butterfly of sorts. Why isn't this mentioned? Yes, it sucks, but it's part of her storyline. It's only mentioned in the series but I don't own anything else, so I don't know what the heck was up with that. (In that same series there's a beardless, modern-clothing wearing Hercules. Lord help us.) 201.143.220.108 08:44, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

It happened around the time of "The Crossing" and Tony Stark going evil and various other horrors in and around Avengers v. 1 #400. Best forgotten, I'd say, very unpopular time. The article would have to grow a lot to merit including it.--Erikacornia 23:38, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
