Comments: The Micronauts ship the Heliopolis is under attack. The Reptos breach the ship.
The crew is made up of Oz, Acroyear, Phenolo-Phi, Larissa, Biotron and Mictotron. The art does not show off these characters all that good. It is done like a cartoon almost.
A mysterious time traveller appears to help the team than leaves. Who is he and what is his purpose?
The full story is not explained. You need to know more about what has happened. Plus the Micronauts you learn next to nothing about them in this issue. The more you know the more you would care about them.
These are not the same Micronauts from years ago. There are new characters and some old ones but they do not seem to mesh well.
Acroyear with his big sword and armor would make a great warrior here though we do not see him fight or others on the team either.
Story is slow and the art is slow in how it moves the story along.
