Hank Pym ("Ant-Man") Cosplay

Hi, I'm Walt. But you can call me "Hank." Hank Pym, that is. I cosplay Dr. Henry Pym, creator of Pym Particles and the original Ant-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This site features pics and videos of my ongoing adventures as the character, interacting with other (amazing) cosplayers and various (amazing) fans. Enjoy! - Walt

This shot is from Day One, when the Old Focals glasses arrived, and my Hank Pym "look" first came together. I was trying to perform Michael Douglas-level "seriousness," but in truth I was worn out after a day of shopping for "Pym clothes." Here is the full-length look.

Here's a fun, little Hank Pym Cosplay video short I made with that photo.
