Plus, Hank’s action was so visceral and so relatable for so many readers that trying to scrub him of responsibility for his actions never takes.

The Avengers #213 is written by James Shooter, penciled by Bob Hall, inked by Dan Green, colored by Don Warfield and lettered by Janice Chiang. Mighty Avengers #15 is written by Brian Michael Bendis, penciled by John Romita Jr., inked by Klaus Janson and Tom Palmer, colored by Edgar Delgado and Guru-eFX and lettered by Dave Lanphear.
