Ant Man Vol 1 - Second-Chance Man

By Nick Spencer

Suitable age: 8 and above

This marks my first review of a comic. Written by Nick Spencer this comic concerns Scott Lang, an ex-thief and present ant-man. Lang is only attempting to get a job as a security guard, but when his daughter is kidnapped, he inevitably has to come face-to-face with his old rival, Darren Cross. This graphic novel is humorous and entertaining, despite the chaotic plot. Have you seen the film ‘Ant Man’? This book illustrates the strange relationship with Lang’s family brilliantly unlike the film. So you may want to see the movie and then read this comic. Graphic novels are great due to their ability to relief you from reading words and words and more words. This book is no exception. Recommended for fans of the ant-man film, junior readers and anyone who lacks patience for reading words.

I really want to read Vol 2 but, unfortunately, comics are like rare diamonds in Hong Kong. Let me know if anyone has it and I would love to borrow it from you. Thanks!
