I understand your feeling. Maybe I'm kinda bias cause I really like the way Ewing "gets characters" and since I love Janet so much this is a completely win for me. But overall it's not as good as Ewing's Ant-Man I agree.
WHO MADE THE WASP? Captured by an alliance of their oldest enemies, Janet and Nadia Van Dyne find themselves trapped in a past where a key part of their history - Henry Pym, the Ant-Man - never existed at all. As strange new lives play out around them, they must find their way back to the Wasp...or cease to exist entirely.
Rated T+
Wasp has been another wonderful anniversary celebration from writer Al Ewing for the tiniest Avengers, and artist Kasia Nie alongside colorist KJ Diaz have made it every bit as visually remarkable. Read Full Review
Wasp #3 is another near-perfect installment in Janet van Dyne's premiere solo comic series, giving us some much-needed payoff after the first two issues provided the setup. The fresh perspective on Janet Van Dyne is something I very much appreciate, and I know fans of her character will as well. Read Full Review
Nie delivers some great visuals in the story. There isn't as much action as the previous issues, but I enjoyed the visual style of the issue and how the environments work in context with the story. Read Full Review
All in all,WASP #3offers an interesting insight into what a modern day Wasp should be viewed as, tying up some loose story lines just before the final chapter begins. It's a perfectly safe series for Wasp fans, and if you aren't onboard yet you definitely should be now. Read Full Review
This issue does a great job of really exploring the main characters against the context of some of their biggest development. Really fun take to explore. Read Full Review
Imagining a world without Henry Pym goes very differently than expected, but neither Wasp realizes. until it's too late. Well-done. Read Full Review
Wasp #3 gives much needed backstory for the villain of the story and how Janet and Nadia Van Dyne factor into things. In the process Al Ewing and Kasia Nie do a excellent job at showcasing how strong Janet and Nadia are. The way Wasp #3 ends it sets up the finale to this series to be one that further strengthens Janet and Nadia's characters for the future. Read Full Review
Yeah this is not the Ant-Man miniseries but is still pretty dam great
As we dive more into the respective altered pasts of Janet and Nadia, we get my favorite issue yet of this miniseries. This felt like a step above the past two issues, in my opinion. We get to connect more with Janet and Nadia by seeing their earlier days in this alternate world while Ewing also interestingly advances the present-day plot with the Creature from Kosmos. Plus, Nie's art is really good once again.
This is solid. The fact that it's not as good as the Ant-Man series still kind of casts a shadow over it for me, but it's telling a very different story. One that I'm just not as intrigued by.
