Comics grow darker and more socially aware. Wolverine, Punisher, Swamp Thing debut. Creator-driven storytelling emerges.
Newsstand variants carry meaningful scarcity premiums. First appearances from this era are blue-chip investments.

The recovery of third-party encapsulation and grading expenditures when an asset is acquired at a discount below the physical cost of replacement grading fees, shipping, and insurance.
After nearly falling for the trap set by the Killer-Folk, Devil Dinosaur, crashes into the spikes, using his momentum and immense weight to break them without damaging himself. As Seven-Scars' plan failed he resorts to his backup and buries Devil Dinosaur in a mountain of rubble he gets the Killer-Folk to drop on him. Presuming Devil dead, Seven-Scars takes Moon-Boy captive and takes him to the cave of Long-Legs as a sacrifice. When they leave, Devil manages to free himself from the rubble, exhausted but alive, but before he gets time to recover he is attacked by an Iguanodon. A short battle ensued which Devil eventually won, and began tracking down Moon Boy to Long-Legs cave. Back at Long-Legs cave, Moon boy has been tied up and is about to be attacked by the aforementioned Long-Legs but is rescued by Devil wielding a flaming branch from the Burned Valley. He sets fire to some grass trapping the Killer-Folk in a circle of fire and rescues Moon Boy and steps on Seven-Scars, who tries to stop their escape killing him. The rest of the killer folk are pushed back into the cave and are all attacked and presumably killed by Long-Legs, Devil and Moon Boy leave while a Mysterious figure watches them.

The Killer-Folk flush Devil Dinosaur out by setting fire to the jungle and try to lure him into a pit full of giant sharpened stakes. Devil leaps over the trap but the Killer-Folk manage to bury him under an avalanche of boulders. They then capture the unconscious Moon Boy and sacrifice him to Long-Legs (a giant spider). Meanwhile Devil Dinosaur frees himself from the boulders, saves Moon Boy, and uses a torch to set fire to the area around Long-Legs' cave. The Killer-Folk get trapped and are killed by Long-Legs just as Devil destroys their leader "Seven Scars".
