Millionaire industrialist Tony Stark is an inventive genius who has dedicated all of his enormous financial and intellectual resources to a single guiding principle: the creation of technology for the betterment of humanity. Stark’s greatest creation is a modern-day miracle: a suit of form-fitting, strength-enhancing, steel-mesh armor he dons to become the living symbol of his ideals, the Invincible Iron Man! But when Stark discovers that the same technology he used to create the Iron Man armor – technology so secret he didn’t even dare patent it – is now in the hands of several deadly super-villains, he feels responsible for the evil they have done with the high-tech tools he unwittingly provided. In the face of objections from his government, friends, colleagues and fellow super heroes, Stark swears to use the power of Iron Man to bring the evil to an end – and to take back what’s his. The Beatle, Stilt Man, the Controller, Stingray, the Mandroids, the Guardsmen and Firepower don’t know it yet, but they’ve got a problem. The world’s most powerful force for good isn’t playing by the rules anymore. And he’s coming for them Collects Iron Man #225-232.

Scott Lang became Ant-Man in the late 1970s, but hasn’t had much of a role in the Marvel Universe for awhile. He died during Avengers Disassembled (along with Hawkeye, Vision, and Jack of Hearts), and then his daughter Cassie used his gear to become Stature in the Young Avengers.
Scott was brought back to life in the Young Avengers: Children’s Crusade mini-series, and he’s now starring in the Marvel NOW! Future Foundation series.
More beatboxing please.
I honestly think the primary reason why the ST poster looks like the Dark Knight poster is because the marketing department handling this movie is not very original. The trailer for ST also uses the exact tone/sound/music? that Prometheus used, as well as the same building tempo.
