Hank Pym or Scott Lang.

I enjoyed the evolution of Pym from his creation into the early Yellowjacket era.
Scott Lang is non-essential, especially the MCU version.

Ant-man is a silly hero. That being said , Hank Pym.

I'm not aware that I've ever read a comic with Scott Lang.
That said, it would be hard for him to not be better than Hank Pym.

Ehhh...any character is only as good as he's being written. I can't come up with a time that anything interesting was done with Pym. But maybe it was and I missed it. |

Scott Lang is a more interesting character, but Hank Pym was much better at using the powers.. I especially like him later in West Coast Avengers. I'd say that story where he tried to come back after being disgraced and became a science/gadget guy... then he had that relationship with Firebird and they talked about some religion, which I thought was interesting.

Hank had a shining moment in Avengers 93 |

I prefer Hank Pym, as a character, a a heroic character, to Scott Lang, as a hero; but, I like Scott Lang as a character. To me, Ant-Man is just a gimmick. It is the only one Lang had, but Pym was more than just that, so I don't think of him as Ant-Man....just Hank Pym, whether he is Ant-Man, Giant Man, Goliath, Yellow Jacket or The Mysterious Mr HP, after losing a loser-leaves-town match (pro wrestling fans will understand that).

Personally, I'm fine with Scott Lang as The Ant-Man. As long as Hank Pym continues being Yellowjacket, then all is right with the Marvel World of 616 (IMHO):  |

Of the two options given, I'd probably say Hank Pym just because he was the original Ant-Man. But honestly, I don't really feel like anything very interesting was ever done with either character. But really, the only Ant-Man I've ever enjoyed reading was Eric O'Grady, who starred in the Irredeemable Ant-Man series in the mid-2000s. He was a heel and a pervert, but at least he was interesting and his comics were pretty funny.  |

I have a soft spot for the original Hank Pym version (probably because Tales to Astonish #38 was the first Marvel comic book I ever owned) despite being one of the lesser Lee/Kirby creations but Scott Lang is the more interesting character, both on paper and on film. I like 'em both, though.

Other than his first appearance in marvel premiere and like 1 issue in Iron man 133, which literally just occurred to me they did an Avengers 94 remake with Iron man instead of Vision, I don’t think I read anything with him either. |
