"I doubt Hank ever mentioned my father; why would he? Elihas Starr. They were colleagues at S.H.I.E.L.D., quantum research. Until my father dared to disagree with The Great Hank Pym. You had him fired, oh, and discredited for good measure."
Ava Starr[src]

Elihas Starr was also a S.H.I.E.L.D. scientist who had worked with Hank Pym and Bill Foster on quantum research until Pym had him fired and discredited. Starr moved to Argentina with his wife Catherine and their daughter Ava, continuing with his research until he and his wife were accidentally killed during a quantum experiment that caused Ava's unstable state.

Biography

Quantum Research

Confronted by Ant-Man and the Wasp

"We wouldn't be here if you hadn't shut me out Hank, but god forbid Doctor Henry Pym ever listen to somebody else!"
"So that's your excuse for being a traitor?"
―Elihas Starr and Ant-Man[src]

Elihas Starr was the partner to Hank Pym and Bill Foster who together worked on harnessing the powers of the Quantum Realm. Starr was a complicated person, as while he cared for his wife, Catherine, and daughter, Ava, he wanted more and plotted to steal Pym's plans to work on the Quantum Realm. However, Pym found out and fired and discredited him, forcing Starr and his family to go into hiding.

Sometime later, Starr managed to recreate Pym's Quantum Realm plans. Unfortunately, Starr was clearly not as smart or patient as him, as the device overloaded and threatened to explode. Starr ordered Catherine and Ava to flee, but Ava decided to stay with her father, as she did not want him to be alone. Catherine came back to grab her, but it was too late. Starr and Catherine perished in the explosion, while Ava miraculously survived, albeit with powers.[1]
