History
Henry Pym discovered the "Pym Particles," which allowed anyone who breathed it to control his size. He and Janet van Dyne used this gas to become super-smalls crimefighters. Henry eventually retired his identity as Ant-Man during the Skrull invasion to become a full-time research scientist for the hard-pressed Defenders. He rediscovered the Super-Soldier formula, granted aging heroes new youth, found a cure for the Inhumans' susceptibility to pollution, built many robot guardians, and revived the Human Torch from Years of "death."
Henry and Janet were divorced after several years of marriage. He has continued to serve as a cornerstone for the Defenders with his intense focus on invention, and he has become internationally famous and quite wealthy.
