    This was the issue that introduced me to the magnificent Golden/Rubinstein team. When I began recollecting comics in 1986 I started going backwards to see what I'd missed 1977 - 1986. This was the first Micronauts I picked up. Everything was flawless: the storyline, the characters and the ART. Oh how great the art was. Definitely Golden and Rubinstein at their best. Any idea how the series sold? I'd like to think all this effort paid off in big sales.
