The birth of superheroes. Superman, Batman, Captain America, and Wonder Woman debut. Comics became a mass medium.
Extreme scarcity drives value. Condition sensitivity is paramount — even low-grade copies of key issues command five figures.

In illiquid alternative asset markets, sovereign blue-chip holdings trade at an exponential multiple over mid-grade float due to institutional accumulation and inelastic seller reservation prices.
Clifford Taylor, heir to the Taylor-Hetty fortune, is found dead in California, three hours after being seen in New York. Due to an unusual clause in an eccentric relative's will, Clifford's family will not receive the inheritance, because he was found in California. F.B.I. agent Woodley Allen contacts Starman and alerts him to the strange death. In his civilian identity as Ted Knight, Starman forfeits participating in a horse race to solve the crime. At the track, Doris Lee discusses the Taylor murder with his surviving family, Matt and Jim. Their cousin, Lieutenant Governor Morgan is also present and is upset that Ted Knight lost the horse race, costing Morgan a tidy sum of money. Matt and Jim tell Doris how Morgan has been using funds from the City Treasury to cover his gambling debts. Ted changes into Starman, then flies out to San Francisco. He examines the body of Clifford Taylor then flies back out east. He finds that a group of thugs has kidnapped Jim Martin and Doris Lee. Starman saves Doris and disables the getaway vehicle as it crosses a suspension bridge into New Jersey. Starman learns that a villain known as the Hooded Hunchback is in possession of a rocket-gun that can launch a payload across the continental United States in a short period of time. After breaking into the Hunchback's lair, he discovers that the crook murdered Clifford Taylor in New York then used his rocket to make sure the body was found in California. Starman discovers that the Hunchback has kidnapped the elderly Matthew Taylor and has launched him from his rocket. His thugs get the drop on Starman who is subsequently placed inside the nosecone of a similar projectile. While the torpedo flies through space, Starman breaks free and rescues Matthew Taylor from the rocket. He brings him safely back to the Hooded Hunchback's castle in New Jersey. Starman defeats the Hunchback and unmasks him, revealing the face of Lieutenant Governor Morgan. As a cousin to the family, Morgan stood to inherit the Taylor family fortune if all other heirs were seemingly killed in California.
