In the issues in the 220's Hanks in jail on a setup from Egghead. While he's in there, he finds out Whirlwind is gonna go after Jan. He finds out his best friend is also gonna go after Jan
He knows what it's like to be wrongfully imprisoned and the pain it causes.
All this said, I wonder why he was on IM's side. Once you've been in prison, especially wrongfully, you're not in a hero to put others there. At least Hank never struck me as that kind of guy.

It can be difficult to motivate what put some characters in the pro or anti reg side in CW (for example, I would have expected Wasp on the anti reg side). I suppose that Hank felt that was the only way for the heroes to have people's trust back (he himself was hurt when he eventually realized he had betrayed those who believed in him). Or may be, having been on the wrong side of the law, he wanted to feel more secure staying on the "right" one this time...

Well, the counter to my statement can be made using the same book. Even though he was wrongly improsoned, and none of his friends would even listen to his story. Hank always steadfastly held on to trusting the justice system. So thinking about it, that does make sense in him being on the side of lawfulness.

Well, there wasn't much else he could do. Even if he managed to escape jail, he would have had the Avengers on his trail, and he knows them well enough to know they are good. This being said, I remember that Scott Lang gave him a chance to run and Pym refused it, preferring to trust the legal system (I wonder how things would have gone if the same story had been written in these days )

I guess tho' it actually shows that they are currently being true to the character. Appearantly one of Pyms traits is an innate trust in the system,
