The original Ant-Man, Dr. Henry "Hank" Pym, first made his [[UsefulNotes/TheSilverAgeOfComicBooks Silver Age]] debut in ''[[ComicBook/TalesToAstonish Tales to Astonish]] #27'' (January, 1962), as an ordinary, but brilliant biochemist. Happily married to Maria Trovaya, a political refugee, Hank was devastated when she was murdered on a trip to Hungary. Her death led to Hank's first mental breakdown, one of his defining attributes in later years. After recovering, Hank threw himself into his work, leading to the creation of a rare group of subatomic particles. Pym then uses the particles to create two serums: one that shrinks objects and one that makes them larger. Testing the first serum on himself, Pym shrinks to insect size for the first time but is unable to reverse the procedure. Now trapped in a nearby anthill, Pym nearly drowns in honey before being rescued by a friendly ant. The new friends fend off an attack by other ants looking for an easy meal before Pym makes it back to his lab. Using the second serum to return to normal size, Pym recognizes the danger of his discovery and decides to destroy the serums before they can do more harm.

Prepared to return to prison for theft, Lang was shocked when Hank Pym allowed him to keep the stolen Ant-Man equipment. Recognizing Lang's true nature, Pym's only condition was that Scott must use the Ant-Man persona to uphold the law. Relieved, Scott received more good news from Dr. Sondheim: Cassie's heart condition was successfully cured. Scott spent the rest of UsefulNotes/TheBronzeAgeOfComicBooks as an Iron Man supporting character, and spent UsefulNotes/TheDarkAgeOfComicBooks as a Fantastic Four supporting character. In the 21st century, he has been an Avenger, died and came back to life, returned to being a Fantastic Four supporting character, and (thanks to Nick Spencer and the Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse) became the face of the Ant-Man brand.

In 2006, ''The Irredeemable Ant-Man'' was launched by Creator/RobertKirkman and Phil Hester, introducing a new Ant-Man, Eric O'Grady.

Lost in the Helicarrier, Chris returns to full size only to be shot in the head. Looking for a place to hide, O'Grady stumbles across Chris's dead body and steals the Ant-Man suit.

Realizing that he was destroying a breakthrough, Hank recreated his serums a few weeks later. Inspired by his experience in the anthill, Pym uses the shrinking serum to become the superhero Ant-Man in ''Tales to Astonish #35'' (September, 1962). He would pick up a partner a few issues later in the form of Janet van Dyne, a young socialite who closely resembled his dead wife. With her father dead thanks to the arrival of the creature from Kosmos, Janet volunteers to undergo genetic alteration at the hands of Pym to become "ComicBook/TheWasp".

Later, the duo would join ComicBook/IronMan and [[ComicBook/TheMightyThor Thor]] in battle against the [[Comicbook/IncredibleHulk Hulk]] until the heroes realize that they've been manipulated by Loki, the God of Mischief. Banding together, the heroes defeat Loki and officially become Comicbook/TheAvengers.

[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/4153674_ant_man_1_cover_mark_brooks_7eb38.jpg]]
The second Ant-Man, Scott Lang was created by David Michelinie and Creator/JohnByrne. Lang first appeared in ''Avengers #181'' (March, 1979). He assumed the Ant-Man identity ''Marvel Premiere #47'' (April, 1979). An electronics expert on the brink of poverty, Scott Lang turned to crime to support his family. A poor criminal, Lang is arrested during a botched robbery and sent to prison. Studying electronics in his free time, Lang earns himself a job offer from Stark International after being paroled early for good behavior.
Resuming his work in the field of electronics, Lang's life appears to be on the upswing until his daughter, Cassie, is diagnosed with a congenital heart condition. The only person capable of curing her condition was Dr. Erica Sondheim, but she was being held prisoner at Cross Technological Enterprises (CTE). Desperate, Lang breaks into Hank Pym's home and steals some of Ant-Man's equipment so he can confront the villain Darren Cross, the owner of CTE. Engaging the villain as "Ant-Man", Lang successfully uses his new powers to defeat Cross and rescue Dr. Sondheim.
Prepared to return to prison for theft, Lang is shocked when Hank Pym allows him to keep the stolen Ant-Man equipment. Recognizing Lang's true nature, Pym's only condition was that Scott must use the Ant-Man persona to uphold the law. Relieved, Scott receives more good news from Dr. Sondheim: Cassie's heart condition was successfully cured. Scott spent the rest of UsefulNotes/TheBronzeAgeOfComicBooks as an Iron Man supporting character, and spent UsefulNotes/TheDarkAgeOfComicBooks as a Fantastic Four supporting character. In the 21st century, he has been an Avenger, died and came back to life, returned to being a Fantastic Four supporting character, and (thanks to Nick Spencer and the Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse) became the face of the Ant-Man brand.
