History
The Antrons were enslaved by the Psycho-Man and used them to clear space debris. When the Micronauts entered Psycho-Man's section of space in the Microverse, the Antrons swarmed the Micronauts' ship the Endeavor. The Micronauts were brought aboard the Psycho-Man's ship but were aided by the Fantastic Four. Together, the two teams defeated Psycho-Man.[1]
Antrons made up a part of the army of Baron Karza and participated in the attack on Microverse.[2] An army of Antrons working for Baron Karza later attacked the Baxter Building and began devouring the Reducta-Craft. Needing the Reducta-Craft to return to the Microverse, the Micronauts fought the Antrons with help from Franklin Richards who blasted the Antrons with a fire extinguisher. The Antrons' ability to fight was inhibited when Arcturus Rann knocked out the queen, disrupting their hive-mind. The Antrons were eventually defeated, but the Micronauts were unable to use the damaged Reducta-Craft.[3]Powers and Abilities
