The Micronauts is an American ongoing science fiction comic book series published by Marvel Comics. It is based on the Microman Japanese toy line produced by Takara in 1974, which was later re-branded and marketed for American consumers by the Mego Corporation in 1976 . The series was published from January, 1979 until August, 1984, spanning a total of 59 issues as well as two annuals. A second Micronauts volume, titled Micronauts: The New Voyages began publication in 1984. The series focused on the denizens of an alien dimension known as the Microverse. While the stories took place within the continuity of the mainstream Marvel Universe, the Micronauts themselves had minimal interaction with other Marvel characters during the original series' run. The term Micronauts has been used to describe all characters who originate from the Microverse, as well as the band of freedom fighters who served as the protagonists of the series. While some of the characters in the series were based on the toy line, such as Baron Karza, Acroyear, Biotron, Microtron, Prince Argon and the Time Traveler, many more were original characters unique to the comic series like Arcturus Rann, Marionette, Bug and Prince Shaitan. Early creators on the series include writer Bill Mantlo, artist Michael Golden and inker Josef Rubinstein with Al Milgrom as editor.
