Devil Dinosaur Makes His Amazing Debut, At Heritage Auctions Today

Devil Dinosaur is one of the most underrated Marvel Comics characters, but that is about to change. He will co-star alongside Moon Girl in a new animated series coming to Disney Channel and Disney+. He's come a long way from his debut in 1978, being created by Jack Kirby, one of the final gifts he gave to Marvel fans. The big red dinosaur is a good pick-up right now, as issues are just starting to creep up, like said debut issue, and this CGC 9.8 copy taking bids at Heritage Auctions today. Man, a 9.8 of his book is tough. While there are over 300 on the census, I have only seen one copy in person before. It currently sits at $260, so the price will be going up I am sure. Check it out below.
