Micronauts #48

The December 1982 cover of The Micronauts #48 throws you right into the chaos, with a massive red robotic figure dominating the composition as smaller Micronauts — one in gold-and-blue, another dark and furred — scramble beneath its looming bulk amid a tangle of machinery and debris. Ed Hannigan's pencils, inked by Danny Bulanadi, give the image a kinetic, almost overwhelming sense of scale that makes the tiny heroes feel genuinely imperiled. With Bill Mantlo writing and Butch Guice on interior art, this "Resurrection!" chapter promises the kind of adventurous science-fantasy storytelling that made this series a standout in Marvel's 1982 lineup.
