marvel has at long last regained the rights to both ROM Spaceknight and the Micronauts.  Omnibus reprints of both series are coming this year.

 

ROM Omnibus #1 has released,  4 different covers.  It contains ROM isues 1 - 29 and Power Man and Iron Fist #73 where ROM guest starred.

 

This is the first time Marvel has ever reprinted ROM and first time they have ever regained the trademarks.  These Omnibus collections will also have the issues of other Marvel books that ROM guest starred in that could never be reprinted before.  Including Power Man and Iron Fist #73, Marvel 2 in 1 #99 and Incredible Hulk #296

I pre-ordered mine months ago and it finally arrived yesterday.  Marvel Comics did a great job restoring ROM.  It's a big, heavy book (as it should be, reprinting 30 comic books), with thick paper and popping colors.

 

I honestly don't recall how I got into ROM back in the late 1970s/early 1980s as I was very young (perhaps it was one of the comic books my father used to regularly buy me), but I bought ROM each month and was sad when it was canceled in the mid-1980s.  I'm really happy that Marvel Comics is finally republishing these adventures.

OMG.  Somewhere in a box I MAY...MAY have the ROM "action" figure from waaaay back.  Forgot about it until now.

You just may have a collector's item on your hands.

Welp... maybe.  I WAS a kid, and the box is probably long gone.

Yeah but worth checking for.  If you have the figure and most or all accessories and it still works, even without the box.....
