Description

I came in on the ground floor of the Micronauts comic book. Legend has it that Bill Mantlo was inspired by his son's new Micronauts toys, and convinced Jim Shooter--Marvel's then Editor-in-Chief--to license the property to produce comic books. I bought the first issue when it came out, featuring ground-breaking artwork by a young Michael Golden. And the artwork throughout the series was kept up to a relatively high standard, including another young newcomer in Jackson "Butch" Guice. But, along with a few other artists, Veteran Gil Kane also penciled a few issues. And the combination of Kane's pencil's and Danny Bulanadi's inks was a winning one. As may collectors know, good Micronauts pages from the first Marvel run are very hard to come by (Due in part to a very committed lover of the series who has collected the lion's share of the pages. And who can blame him!) So, I was really happy to work out a deal for this page. It is an especially striking one and has all of the main characters.

This is nice!  We all know the look of Gil Kane's work during this time period, so we can see what Bulanadi brought to the page.  Packed with detail and patternwork, this example is excellent!
