Godzilla
"Once upon a transplanted time (courtesy of Dr. Doom's time machine), in the primordial Valley of the Flame..."
Storyline
Godzilla and Devil Dinosaur battle against the Lizard-Warriors. They start to become overwhelmed by sheer numbers. Moon Boy runs ahead and asks the Hag of the Pits for help to get rid of the Lizard-Warriors. Moon Boy convinces Devil Dinosaur and Godzilla to lure the Lizard-Warriors to the pits. The warriors fall in and vanish. However the energy of the pits reacts with Godzilla's radiation and causes him to tear through time and space back to the present day appearing in downtown New York City just as the effects of the shrink gas finally wear off.
Story Notes
The pits emanate strange energies and will cause anything that fall into them to teleport to another time or dimension. In Devil Dinosaur (Marvel, 1978 series) #9, Devil Dinosaur had fallen into one of the pits which teleported him into the present day.
Devil Dinosaur and Moon Boy would next appear in Fallen Angels (Marvel, 1987 series) #4 (July 1987). While Devil Dinosaur does have a brief cameo in Ka-Zar the Savage #34 (1984), it's an out of continuity humor appearance.
The Hag of the Pits was last seen in Devil Dinosaur (Marvel, 1978 series) #9. She would return for a brief cameo in Avengers Academy (Marvel, 2010 series) #6 (January 2011).
