...research scientist Henry Pym and his team, working on an anti-radiation gas, have been captured by Russkie spies.
Donning his protective uniform, Pym becomes ant-sized, uses his cybernetic helmet to contact ants and begins freeing the other scientists!
Now, witness...
Pym battled a number of Russkies, and even a couple of Chinese Communists during his run in Tales to Astonish!
Trivia: you may not realize it, but the original Ant-Man/Giant-Man costume has a reverse color scheme from Spider-Man's outfit!
Was it a deliberate choice to point up the difference between insect and arachnid heroes?
Only editor Stan Lee and colorist Stan Goldberg knew, and (sadly) we can no longer ask them!
