Marvel revolution. Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, and Steve Ditko create the modern superhero. Spider-Man, Fantastic Four, X-Men debut.
The sweet spot for collectors — significant enough to be culturally important, scarce enough to be valuable. 9.8 copies are extremely rare.
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.
A pair of brothers are sent into Area X-9 to investigate why subs keep on disappearing in the area. They go out on a two pronged investigation: One brother piloting a sub the other a plane. In the area the sub is attacked by a giant prehistoric fish. Fighting it off, the fighter plane is attacked by two Pterodactyls and has one of it's engines smashed in the process. Losing altitude, the plane flies through a strange cloud and ends up landing on the wing of another Pterodactyl, one of an entire flock of the creatures. The crew is forced to jump ship and as they free fall they shoot all the beasts out of the sky before parachuting down to the island below. There they fight on and blow up the various Dinosaurs they encounter, the sub meanwhile is fighting off various other prehistoric menaces taking them out with their torpedoes. Back on land, the soldiers find their plane and remove it's explosives, and carrying them to the beach with inflatable rafts. They arrive on the beach just as the sub is riding out of the water. When it is terrorized by by a Brontosaurus, the other soldiers use the planes missiles to kill the creature. The two brothers are reunited and they use the sub to escape to the mainland.

Subs are disappearing in Area X-9. Jim will command a sub as "bait" while brother Nicky shepherds in his bomber aloft. The sub is nabbed by a "dinosaur fish", but the bomber is attacked by a flying dinosaur, then a flock of pterodactyls. The bomber plops atop a ptero and the crew bails out. Landing (on Dinosaur Island), they fight dinosaurs... Nicky recalls how older brother Jim would use him a bait to lure rival gangs into ambush... The bomber crew uses life rafts to reach the beached sub. They KO the last dinosaurs and the brother reunite. Just like old times.

Sgt. Rock earns praise from a veteran sergeant, then answers questions about Rommel's beach obstacles, battleship guns.
In North Africa, Sarge is a "jeep jockey" for a general. He imagines leading charges into battle -- and gets his chance. The jeep is blown up, the general hurt. Sarge drags the general to an old French Foreign Legion fort, but Nazis hold it. Sarge uses a junk tank to gain the fort, but more Nazis show up. Donning the general's helmet, Sarge bravely stands up to them -- and the Nazis surrender! "A fighting combat sergeant [is] the kind all generals want to be!"
