“Mantlo and Golden threw their hearts into this assignment
and made it far better than it has any right to be. “
Today on the program, we talk about The Micronauts…the Marvel toy adaptation from the 1970s written by Bill Mantlo and drawn by Michael Golden that should have just been a bit of fluff…but holy cow, there is so much more. There’s political intrigue, revolution, some truly disturbing moments, and some questionable places to hide a disruptor pistol. And a lot of goofy fun too.
And we talk about toys. That’s it, just two old guys talking about toys.
As always, thanks for listening.
