Ant-Man, Yellowjacket and Spider-Man have all made there way to the big screen.
Yes, we've already had Spider-Man and now Ant-Man. But the history of bug-based superheroes doesn't stop there. Here is a smattering of the other insectoid-inspired characters in comics over the years.
Mantis
Company: Marvel
Appeared: 1973
Powers: Telepathy, plant control, healing, astral projection. Plus she's green and has antenna but those are less powers and more decorative features. Appearances: Frequent in the 80s and 90s, less regular in modern comics.
Movie likeliness: Never going to happen. DC is aiming for pure drama with their films; someone aware he's in a comic book movie wouldn't really work.
Human Fly / Richard Deacon
Company: Marvel
Appeared: 1976
Powers: His DNA was genetically spliced with a fly, giving him fly wings, fly eyes and super fly vomit, as well as the strength of a house fly in human form.
Appearances: He has been a sporadic villain since appearing, turning up every now and then mostly in the Spider-related titles, though has been more regular over the past few years.
Movie likeliness: An Agents of SHIELD cameo is more likely than a movie role. Though it would also depend on Jeff Goldblum's availability, naturally.
Maggott / Japeth
Company: Marvel
Appeared: 1997
Powers: A blue-skinned mutant whose digestive system is actually two flesh-eating maggots, named Eany and Meany. As you can see, they put a lot of thought into his codename.
Appearances: Sporadically in the late 90s, but was killed off mid-noughties.
Movie Likeliness: Nigh on impossible, but can you imagine the promotional McDonald's tie-in? That's worth the $200 million budget alone.
Insect Queen / Lana Lang
Company: DC
First Appeared: 1950
Powers: A super-powered ring gave her the typical super-strength/speed/flight, plus she can shapeshift into any insect.
Appearances: Lang has been a regular Superman-supporting character since the 1950s, mostly as Clark Kent's teenage girlfriend from Smallville. The Insect Queen moniker has been less frequent, particularly in recent comics.
Movie likeliness: High. Lang has already appeared in various live action and animated shows and movies. Insect Queen remains un-adapted, but even the most obscure villains are being brought in to Arrow and The Flash, so an appearance is possible.
Powers: Instead of swinging, she can cling, and her costume has web-like parts to help her glide. Drew also has super-strength and can fire bio-energy blasts.
Appearances: Drew was the first Spider-Woman from 1977 to 1983, when she was killed off, but was resurrected the next year. She did not fully reclaim her title until 2005 and has appeared regularly since.
Movie likeliness: High. Sony/Marvel has to do something different with this latest reboot, and bringing in Spider-Woman adds something new. Also, it was recently announced Drew will become pregnant later this year, which will add something very different to the MCU.
