Micronauts

The Micronauts began as a licensed toy line, but Bill Mantlo turned them into one of Marvel's most inventive cosmic sagas. The core tension is scale: an entire civilization, the Microverse, living below the level of the atom, whose exiles keep spilling into the Marvel Universe. In omnibus form the run reads as a sustained space opera about refugees fighting a fascist regime, not a toy tie-in.

The volumes that matter are gathered as Micronauts: The Original Marvel Years. Volume 1 pairs Mantlo with Michael Golden, whose kinetic art defined Homeworld, Baron Karza and the Body Banks, and collects the founding run where Commander Rann, Marionette, Acroyear, Bug and the robots Biotron and Microtron crash-land on Earth. Later volumes carry the war against Karza to its end and into The New Voyages.

Micronauts: The Original Marvel Years Omnibus Vol. 2

This second omnibus opens with the explosive six-part origin of the Microverse, then follows Commander Rann and his rebels as they race to find three keys and stop the mad King Argon, cross into the X-Men's Danger Room pursued by the metamorph Huntarr, and confront the returning Baron Karza. It gathers the deep-cut stretch of Bill Mantlo's cult run that Marvel kept out of print for decades, drawn by Pat Broderick, Gil Kane and Butch Guice.

Start with the Original Marvel Years Omnibus Vol. 1. The Golden issues are why the series is remembered, and they set up every character and conflict the later volumes pay off. Darker and stranger than the toys suggest, it stands on its own as classic Mantlo cosmic Marvel.
