The Trial of Yellowjacket is a storyline featuring The Avengers by Marvel Comics. It ran from July 1981 to January 1983 from The Avengers (1963) #212-230.During the battle with a mysterious sorceress known as the Elfqueen, Hank Pym, then known by the identity "Yellowjacket", attacked the misguided woman after Captain America had talked her down. Unable to explain his actions, Hank is court-marshalled by the Avengers to determine punishment. However, Hank's actions would lead to the man's darkest moment of his life, one an old foe long-thought dead is more than willing to exploit.This story is well-known for its most infamous moment: an unhinged Hank Pym slapping Janet Van Dyne, a Never Live It Down moment both in and out of universe. | |

Frame-Up | |
The Trial of Yellowjacket (Comic Book) / int_2d363f63 | comment |
Frame-Up: Egghead does this twice to Hank: First, it's revealed that the cybernetic arm he attached to Egghead's niece, Trish, didn't have a bomb like he claimed, but instead gave her Laser-Guided Amnesia to make it seem that Hank willingly started robbing places instead of a threat of death. Second, during Hank's trial, the Masters of Evil storm the courtroom and spirit him away with the captured Shocker telling everyone that Hank had willingly joined them. | |

Kick the Dog: Even before the infamous scene, Hank’s response to Janet asking which dress to wear is to destroy one of them with his laser beams. | |

The Trial of Yellowjacket (Comic Book) / int_590eb583 | comment |
Domestic Abuse: One of the more iconic moments in Avengers history, only if its a brief moment: Hank backhanding Janet as she tries to reason with him. | |

Sanity Slippage | |
The Trial of Yellowjacket (Comic Book) / int_62434fe2 | comment |
Sanity Slippage: It's quite clear in the story that Hank is not in his right mind and, years later, it would be confirmed that he has manic episodes. Egghead uses this to his advantage to get Hank framed and arrested for robberies. | |

Brought Down to Normal: Radioactive Man uses his powers to absorb She-Hulk's gamma radiation, returning her to normal Jennifer Walters. She's pushed to the Despair Event Horizon as she liked being She-Hulk. Thankfully, Hawkeye is able to reawaken her form by pissing her off. | |

The Trial of Yellowjacket (Comic Book) / int_6ee10e0 | comment |
My Greatest Failure: Cap justifies putting Hank through the court-martial due to the fact that, back in World War II, he got so caught up in avenging the troop he was in that he nearly killed a little girl that wandered into the battlefield. | |

The Trial of Yellowjacket (Comic Book) / int_863fa679 | comment |
What Happened to the Mouse?: A number of heroes are invited to join the Avengers, though only She-Hulk and Hawkeye are able to join, the others not showing up. Spider-Man does appear a year later in real-time to respond. Tony Stark up and disappears during the trial. It's not explain in the story, but by this time Tony relapsed into alcoholism and James Rhodes took over as Iron Man. He wouldn't work with the Avengers until the events of Secret Wars (1984). | |

Humiliation Conga | |
The Trial of Yellowjacket (Comic Book) / int_890d4ef2 | comment |
Humiliation Conga: Poor Hank. His desire to be seen as useful leads to him being drummed out of the Avengers, divorced from his wife, made homeless and penniless, framed for robberies and accused of working with some of their deadliest foes. It's no wonder Hank opted to pull a 10-Minute Retirement after all of that. | |

Didn't Think This Through: Hank's big plan to get him back onto the team is by creating a robot that only he can defeat. However, the robot proved to be way too strong and it leads to Wasp being the only one to stop it. | |

The Trial of Yellowjacket (Comic Book) / int_cb83d23b | comment |
I Just Want to Be Special: Early in the story, Hank is completely and utterly chomping at the bit to be seen as a worthwhile member of the team, acting totally irrational. He also believes this is what will get him back in the team's good graces during his court-martial. | |

Killing in Self-Defense | |
The Trial of Yellowjacket (Comic Book) / int_d952cef0 | comment |
Killing in Self-Defense: At the end, Hawkeye spots Egghead ready to shoot Hank In the Back and fires an arrow into the barrel of the laser he had trained on the fallen hero. However, Egghead had pulled the trigger as the arrow entered the barrel, the feedback ending up killing Egghead. Hawkeye is horrified that it happened as he was not intending it at all and, thankfully, the law and the Avengers side with Hawkeye and he's cleared of all charges. | |

Sixth Ranger | |
The Trial of Yellowjacket (Comic Book) / int_dabc7a46 | comment |
Sixth Ranger: The Avengers go through quite a number of members during this team that this trope gets some exercise. Wasp, Yellowjacket and Tigra all join in at the start of the storyline. Yellowjacket gets kicked out and Tigra bolts early on, leaving only Cap, Thor, Iron Man and Wasp. Hawkeye rejoins and She-Hulk joins partway through and the then-new Captain Marvel, Monica Rambeau, joins as a "junior member" near the end. | |

Legion of Doom: Egghead forms his own Masters of Evil in his story. It's initially comprised of Moonstone, Tiger Shark, Whirlwind and the Scorpion, but Whirlwind's vengeance against the Wasp proves to be a liability and he and Scorpion are replaced with Radioactive Man, Shocker and the Beetle. | |

Interrupted Cooldown Hug | |
The Trial of Yellowjacket (Comic Book) / int_fe74de12 | comment |
Interrupted Cooldown Hug: What kicked off Hank's Humiliation Conga: his bioelectrical sting had stopped working just as he tried to stop Elfqueen and he went to fix it. During this time, Captain America had been able to talk her down. However, Hank hadn't caught that bit and, chomping at the bit to be a hero, fired his now-working weapons at her, resuming the battle. Thankfully, Cap is able to calm her again, but to say the team is displeased is an understatement. | |
