Why would kids ever find Hank Pym cool when his appearance in Age of Ultron consists of him screaming for Sue Storm to help him and getting his throat slashed as he sits there and puts up as much fight as a newborn puppy? Heaven forbid he shrink down or call a million ants to crawl up into Wolvie's brain and incapacitate him. Seems ridiculous that Pym couldn't even get a good showing in an event that exists because of the character's history.
I have to say, I feel like Hank put up a perfectly good showing in that issue. But at that point in his history, he couldn’t shrink to ant-size due to health concerns, nor was he wearing his cybernetic helmet that allowed him to communicate with ants. So he couldn’t have done either of the two things you suggest here.
