Years in the making! A tale of Galactic Proportions!
Our saga takes us to the far reaches of space, where a mysterious runaway Crystal is being pursued by the evil Meteor Mongers! The Mongers will not stop until they find the Enchanted Crystal! WHAT? WHY? What's so important about this Crystal? Could it be the ultimate power in the universe? I think so! Or maybe the Crystal is about to choose the newest Hero of the Aw Yeat Universe! You bet!
Introducing METEOR MITE! The most powerful being on earth...and the world heavyweight championship wrestler? Every hero has an origin story, and this one belongs to Meteor Mite! But how does one learn to be a superhero? Is Mikey worthy of this power? Where do those powers come from? Mikey is about to step into a whole new world... while accidentally making enemies along the way.
“METEOR MITE is finally here! He is my itty bitty all-powerful cosmic super hero who must prove himself worthy of being on the team! My gosh, it seems like I had him in my sketchbook for years… because I have! It's true! Meteor Mite is inspired by all the superhero cartoons I watched as a kid. Through the years, I wrote and drew bits of his story and created aliens and bad guys along the way. And now it's finally all coming together! A modern classic epic indeed. And he fits perfectly in the AW YEAH COMICS UNIVERSE! I am so proud of this comic and hope you enjoy, AW YEAH!” —Art Baltazar
