Comics behind the movie

Ant-Man is best approached as a screen interpretation of the character’s foundations rather than a panel-for-panel adaptation. Start with Tales to Astonish #27, #35, then compare it with Marvel Premiere #47–48 and To Steal an Ant-Man!. Reading the references alongside the movie makes it easier to see what the filmmakers retained, combined or reinvented for the screen.
