Jack Kirby created Devil Dinosaur in 1978 and partnered him with a wild child named Moon-Boy. But in recent years, an Inhuman super genius named Lunella Lafayette bonded with the dino and together the pair has exploded across the Marvel comics universe! Their harmonious relationship has even been compared to Studio Ghibli projects, so if you’re down for some wholesome fun these are the comics for you!
