Note: Marvel entered the direct distribution market in 1979, when this title launched. Direct edition (non-returnable) issues -- identified with a price box modification -- were rarer than newsstand (returnable) issues until around 1986, when the direct market accounted for a majority of comic book sales. The DIRECT editions in this lot are rarer than the newsstand editions, since they were published early in the distribution switchover. MICRONAUTS was extremely popular in comic book shops, and helped to demonstrate the viability of the direct market in its early years.
