About the Microscopic Volume 1 #1 Cover C

BIG THINGS COME FROM SMALL BEGINNINGS
Have you ever felt small? So small, it feels like nothing you do matters? So insignificant that just the idea of standing up feels like climbing a mountain? Then welcome to the world of... MICROSCOPIC.

We walk around every day oblivious to the fact that there’s a strange, teeming, potentially dangerous universe existing below our noses; on and around our bodies, just beneath our line of sight. A dimension of tiny life and hidden danger called THE UNDERVERSE.

We walk around every day oblivious to the fact that there’s a strange, teeming, potentially dangerous universe existing below our noses; on and around our bodies, just beneath our line of sight. A dimension of tiny life and hidden danger called THE UNDERVERSE.

But every time you've ever gotten a cold, it's because you've been compromised. Your body has been infiltrated. You've been changed, one microbe at a time. Just because we can't see it, doesn't mean it can't hurt us.

Duncan and Elizabeth Small have recently reached the 20th anniversary of their marriage. To their scientific peers, they’re two of the world’s leading nano-technologists: both charming and charismatic, brilliant and imaginative.
Two once-in-a-lifetime minds, they’re a husband and wife team that have worked tirelessly to invent something that will improve the world around us. A technology that will enable the human consciousness to explore The Underverse and its infinite teeming life forms... And secrets. Except behind closed doors, Duncan and Liz have come to despise one another.

But when the long-simmering anger and resentment between the two boils over; when their life's work goes catastrophically awry and Liz learns exactly what small feels like; she finds herself thrust into the hidden universe beneath our feet on a desperate mission to save the husband she's come to hate more than anyone. And uncovers a universe-sized conspiracy that threatens to destroy the entirety of existence. Big things come from small beginnings. The end of all creation may come from something even smaller.

Erupting from the pages of the legendary HEAVY METAL magazine, the sci-fi sensation Microscopic continues in this new first issue, complete with all-new story and art by series' creators Keith Champagne and Raffaele Forte!
Like all New Pain titles, Microscopic #1 is completely finished and ready to go to print the day the campaign ends. We're very proud of this project and are excited to share both it, and the artwork and storytelling of Italian superstar Raffaele Forte with the world.
