'''King Acroyear''' (formerly Prince Acroyear) is the name of a [[fictional character]] from [[Micronauts]] series introduced in 1979 by Marvel Comics.

==Micronauts==
===Development===
Prince Acroyear was introduced in Marvel Comics Micronauts series in 1979.

===Comics===
====1979 Marvel Comics====

The Marvel Comics Micronauts story features a race known as the Acroyear as well as a specific character named Prince Acroyear (later King Acroyear) who was their king. King Acroyear was vaguely based on the red Acroyear toy, with some modifications.

Although various members of the Acroyear race appeared in the series, a only group called the Acroyear Air Patrol were directly based on the Mego Acroyear toys. Acroyear's brother Shaitan was roughly based on the Acroyear II toy. Two Acroyear pilots were directly based on the figures that make up the arms of Giant Acroyear. The rest were original designs by Marvel Comics.

Acroyear was captured by Baron Karza's forces and forced to battle as a slave gladiator. He became friends with Bug, and together they joined the Micronauts.

When the Micronauts breached the space wall to escape Baron Karza they arrived on Earth, where they discovered they were about 6 inches tall compared to the native human population.

In Iron Man issue 131 a young boy was able to calm the Hulk down by offering to let him play with his Acroyear and Baron Karza action figures.

A vehicle resembling the Photon Sled was flown by Acroyear and Cicilia in issue 14.

When Marvel lost the license to Micronauts it included losing the rights to Acroyear, and he has not appeared officially again the Marvel Universe. Shortly after the Micronauts series was canceled Acroyear and other Micronauts characters make an unnamed cameo in New Mutants 50.

A similar character named Sparktak, clearly based on Acroyear, would appear as a member of the Ant Men.
