Micronauts #24

From the Microwave-verse comes chaos — the cover by Michael Golden puts the Micronauts in the thick of a high-tech battle as a blue-armored figure and green insectoid enemies clash amid a spectacular explosion of sparks and machinery. A spectral, psychedelic figure looms in a swirling portal to the left, while a large blue robot and the team's familiar faces — glimpsed in the corner boxes — round out a cover packed with kinetic energy. Promising "When Computrex Commands!" plus a bonus "Tales of the Microverse" segment, this December 1980 issue delivers the science-fantasy action that made this Bill Mantlo and Pat Broderick series a distinctive corner of Marvel's lineup.
