No Bug, Arcturus Rann, Marionette... Baron Karza is referred to as "Lord Karza" (WTF?) and doesn't show up until the last page of issue #1. It's just one more reminder that you can never go home again... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f641.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":(" title="Frown    :("  data-smilie="3"data-shortname=":(" /> The original Micronauts comics (especially #1-12, which were basically the main storyline begining to end) were incredible. Bill Mantlo and Michael Golden teamed up to create one of the best comics in history. Micronauts came out as a comic in 1978, BTW, though I think the toys were on US shelves before that. I had the Acroyear (red) and Prince Shaitan (blue Acroyear) figures as well as Reptos, Antron and the sick looking monster with the Dracula fangs and removable orange brain that looked like an afro (forgot his name, but he was my favorite of the three Micronauts monsters). I still have my Force Commander figure, but lost Andromeda, Baron Karza's horse (you could interchange the Force Commander and Karza figures with those of their horses to make them into centaurs with rocket launchers mounted on their backs!).</blockquote>
