His power is he's small, and it comes in extremely handy on many of their missions.

Mikros is one of a team of heroic Chromobots from the Chromatic Star Federation. As more of a juvenile wisecracker than his comrades, he is often paired up with the Chromobots' new human ally, Dudley, from whom he has learned the value of comic books. He is nonetheless dedicated to the pursuit of justice, with his special skills including his concealable small size and his powerful optic blast... though he has a lot less luck with his faulty jet pack.

Fiction

Mikros was a member of a trio of Chromobots from the Chromatic Star Federation. The team was dispatched to Earth on one of two spaceships, with the mission of capturing or eliminating the escaped criminal, Predator. The Chromobots issue 16 After leaving the starship, Issue 13 Mikros' jet pack failed above suburban Britain. Spotting a house, he decided it was as good a place to park as any, and glided in through the window, where he met Dudley. Issue 12 Mikros apologised for the crash landing, and introduced himself to the sputtering comic geek. Dudley had to conceal him from the being known as "Dad" before grilling Mikros on where he'd come from. Mikros' biggest concern was finding his fellow Chromobots. Issue 13

The following day – a Saturday – Dudley went for a walk through the park with Mikros concealed in a carrier bag. Mikros detected a strong Chromobot signal, and encouraged Dudley that when they rendezvoused, he ditch the embarrassing shopping bag. Before that could happen, Dudley was approached by an old tramp, and he fled the scene. Issue 14 Mikros attempted to explain that the old man was more than meets the eye, but was interrupted by the arrival of Transmute, the true Chromobot form of the vagrant in question. Transmute's psionic scan told him that Dudley could be trusted, and so Transmute beseeched him to ally with the Chromobot Empire. Issue 15 Dudley took Mikros (in the shopping bag) and Transmute (disguised as a young boy) back home with him. After dodging questions from Dudley's mum, they retreated to Dudley's room, where Transmute explained their mission. Issue 16
