APPEARANCE
Hank was born looking (mostly) human, with the one exception being his large, ape-like feet with prehensile toes which allowed him to cling to objects and hang upside down.
After meeting Raven, Hank used her blood to synthesize a serum which he hoped would be able to "fix" his appearance and make him look fully human. Unfortunately, it unlocked a secondary mutation which made him much larger and more animalistic, with blue skin and hair, fanged teeth, and clawed hands and feet.
After more experimentation, Hank would perfect his serum, and allow himself to return to a more "human" appearance, but he must keep reapplying the serum in order to stay that way.
