Summary

This volume is issue #2 of the 2015 Ant-Man series, written by Nick Spencer and drawn by Ramon Rosanas, part of Marvel's "Avengers NOW!" initiative. The series centers on Scott Lang, the second Ant-Man: his revived daughter Cassie prompts him to leave New York for Miami to start over, building his own security-consulting firm while trying to balance his roles as a father and a superhero. The troubles of his past won't let him go: Augustine, son of his old enemy Darren Cross, is plotting to bring his father back to life, and a parade of allies and rivals keep turning up at his door. This issue carries on the tone set at the series' opening—mixing street crime, family relationships, and bizarre battles of shrinking and growing, with action seen from a microscopic perspective alongside Scott's awkward, tender moments as an unreliable dad. Note that this is the single issue #2 of the 2015 Ant-Man series, not a Chinese-language collection; for whether a Chinese edition exists and which collection it corresponds to, please refer to actual publication information.

Editor's review

如果你是从电影《蚁人》走进漫画的读者,2015 年这版《Ant-Man》连载是很好的入口。编剧尼克·斯宾塞擅长把“失败者英雄”的日常写得又窘迫又好笑:斯科特·朗不再是高大上的复仇者,而是一个有案底、没钱、还想当好爸爸的中年人。画师拉蒙·罗萨纳斯的线条干净利落,蚂蚁视角的构图和市区追逐战处理得轻快流畅,读起来毫不费力。本册作为连载第 2 期,正处在系列铺陈人物关系的阶段:新城市、新公司、旧仇家,几条线索同时展开,节奏偏“连续剧”,更适合整卷连着读。需要提醒的是,这是英文原版单期,篇幅有限,单独买一本不足以获得完整故事弧;建议与第 1、3—5 期以及年刊一并入手,或选择收录第 1—5 期的合集《Ant-Man Vol. 1: Second-Chance Man》。

Who it's for

A good fit for

  • 看过《蚁人》电影、想进一步了解斯科特·朗漫画形象的读者
  • 喜欢幽默、生活化超级英雄故事的漫威读者
  • 想练习英文原版漫画阅读的漫画爱好者
  • 喜欢微观视角动作设计与轻喜剧风格的人

Not a good fit for

  • 只想读一篇完整独立故事、不愿追连载的读者
  • 偏好宏大宇宙级事件与群像史诗的漫威读者
  • 对英文原版阅读有困难、又无中文版可选的读者

Reading tips

  1. 先读第 1 期再进入本册,否则人物关系与搬家动机容易接不上。
  2. 可把第 1—5 期与年刊视为一个完整故事弧,连续读完体验更佳。
  3. 留意画面里蚂蚁群与缩小场景的细节,这是本系列最有辨识度的部分。
  4. 读完可衔接同创作团队的后续系列《Astonishing Ant-Man》。

FAQ

这本是中文版还是英文原版?
根据公开资料,2015 年《Ant-Man》第 2 期为 Marvel Comics 出版的英文原版单期,未见对应的中文单期版本。中文读者多通过收录第 1—5 期的合集或后续引进版接触该故事。
这一期可以单独读吗?
可以,但体验会打折扣。第 2 期处在系列铺陈阶段,人物动机来自第 1 期,情节也延续到后面几期,单独阅读容易有断裂感,建议按顺序连读。
和电影《蚁人》剧情一样吗?
不一样。漫画与电影共享斯科特·朗、汉克·皮姆、达伦·克罗斯等角色设定,但故事线独立,漫画中斯科特已搬往迈阿密,情节走向与电影差异较大。
这一期包含哪些内容?
为单期正文,通常还附有封面与少量编辑栏目。具体页码、附赠内容随印刷批次不同,公开资料未见可靠记载,此处不作确定描述。
