The Brute: Eric lambasts All-Father Ultron for using his cosmic powers to just punch and fire laser beams at people. His foe tries to rectify this by summoning some demons, but even then all it amounts to is just giving him some Combat Tentacles. | |

Ant-Man (2022) (Comic Book) / int_1e679bd0 | comment |
The Quisling: After being caught by Ultron, O'Grady- having yet to undergo the Character Development that would make him marginally less of a Dirty Coward- immediately begins pleading for his life by offering to be a henchman or stoolie. Of course, once Ultron is defeated, he immediately claims he was deliberately trying to distract Ultron so the others could beat him. | |

How Do I Shot Web?: At the start of his issue, Eric O'Grady discovers that his suit is out of Pym Particles, so can't shrink. He has absolutely no idea how to get more of them. After an attempt at Grave Robbing and a battle against Criti Noll, he discovers he simply needed to tell the suit to make more. | |

Chekhov's Gun: The Time Master's aging ray, which just seems like part of issue 1's one-off story, comes back in issue 3. It's used to free Ultron from his prison. Vibranium may be a fictional metal, but it's still one that obeys some of the laws of physics... like entropy. Then Scott brings it along with him to the future by accident, allowing the Ant-Men to use it to defeat Ultron. | |

Recurring Element | |
Ant-Man (2022) (Comic Book) / int_2a552d44 | comment |
Recurring Element: Each of the Ant-Men appears in some respect in each of the four issues. In issue 1, a teenage Eric O'Grady pesters Hank Pym at the cinema, while Scott Lang appears as a burglar trying to break into the Ant-Agonists' base. In issue 2, the Skrull duplicate of Hank Pym catches Eric O'Grady in the act of trying to dig up Scott Lang's grave. In issue 3, Scott Lang is tasked with dealing with the fused Hank Pym/Ultron, only for Black Ant, a robot copy of Eric O'Grady, to attack him. In issue 4, all three previous Ant-Men team up with Zayn Asghar, who had made appearances time traveling back to each of the previous issues. | |

Mike Nelson, Destroyer of Worlds: Turns out Black Ant is (partially) responsible for the Bad Future of Ultron Forever thanks to his actions in issue 3. Namely, freeing Ultron from his casket gave him a boost thanks to the Asgardian magic and vibranium present, allowing him to conquer Asgard and then the entire universe. | |

The Mirror Shows Your True Self: An enforced trope. Criti uses a washroom while impersonating Hank Pym and the mirror shows her undisguised Skrull form. This is a narrative device for the reader's benefit, as her in-universe reflection doesn't reveal her disguise. | |

Painting the Medium: The narration boxes for the scenes in the 60s are typically bombastic for that time period. The ones in the unspecified future era are terse and branded to fit not only the time period but the sterile laboratory setting, as if they were being spoken by a computer. | |

Villainous BSoD: Scott Lang manages to temporarily shut Ultron's claim of being part-Hank Pym down by asking why, if he's got all the power he has, he never tried separating himself from Ultron. This gives the kill-bot a momentary existential crisis... and then he defaults to Ultron's usual solution: Kill everything in sight. | |

Art Shift | |
Ant-Man (2022) (Comic Book) / int_912b24c4 | comment |
Art Shift: The art and writing style change as the time period does, mimicking different styles of comic book over the years: The year 2549 is portrayed with stark, saturated block colors and lineless art, with angular, computerised caption boxes that provide "reader instructions", giving it a futuristic tone. The flashback to Hank Pym's early days feature yellowed pages with faux wood-pulp grain and ben-day dots, deliberately hammy dialogue and thought balloons containing characters' inner monologues. The flashback to Eric O'Grady's Ant-Man career starts with an ant recapping the status quo, and mimics traits of decompressed comics, including pages with tight grids of several panels of the same art, reused with different dialogue. The present-day sequence featuring Scott Lang is written in the style of a modern comic, avoiding the use of thought balloons in favour of more varied Speech Bubbles and voiceover captions. | |

The Bus Came Back: In the first issue the villains Trago, the Protector, Time Master and the Window-Washer all return from the original 1960s Tales to Astonish stories. Skrull infiltrator Criti Noll, killed off in 2008's Secret Invasion, appears in the Eric O'Grady issue while impersonating Hank Pym. | |

Ant-Man (2022) (Comic Book) / int_9c1f758a | comment |
Kill It with Fire: Thor suggests this as a solution to Ultron, dropping him in the forges of Nidavellir (which, he notes, would also give whatever's left of Hank Pym a Viking funeral). Tony rejects this because, aside from the fact this particular Ultron's survived being dunked into the Sun before, the casket keeping him contained would melt long before Ultron would. | |

Continuity Nod: Alongside teenaged Eric is his best friend Chris McCarthy, who was the one who used the G.I.Ant suit before Eric. Black Ant suggests he and Scott should exchange notes on Hench, the app seen in Nick Spencer's Ant-Man run. TTA Hank Pym accidentally misnames Ultron "Ultimo". When zapped by the Time-Master's age ray, Ultron shifts through some of the forms he's had over the years, including his Phalanx-Ultron form, and his Ultron-13 form, finally ending on his very first. | |

Unfulfilled Purpose Misery: Why Black Ant's up to what he's up to in issue 3. He was made for a Kill and Replace scenario, but the being that made him has long been defeated. He's a robot made to follow orders without orders to follow (and you can only hang out with Taskmaster for so long). Fortunately, Ultron provides him with something to do. | |

Connected All Along: The first issue reveals that both Scott Lang and Eric O'Grady, two Legacy Character versions of Ant-Man, crossed paths with Pym early in his career. O'Grady, as a teenager, pelts Pym with popcorn when he's trying to watch a movie with Janet Van Dyne. Scott Lang inadvertently rescues Hank by trying to burgle the villain's soundproof lair, as Trago's music is heard by the Wasp as soon as the window's slightly open. The Wasp lets him off with a warning. | |

We Need a Distraction: Eric's contribution to the final battle amounts to being an unwilling volunteer of this trope as he's too much of a coward to fight All-Father Ultron, he just tries to run away from him. This paradoxically allows him to last longer against the mad god than any of his predecessors, giving the other Ant-Men time to think up a solution. | |
