I found an official list of characters Marvel deemed important back in the early 70s.

Quietly amused over Quicksilver being rated as one of Marvel's least important characters, but that may help explain the rough treatment he had in Avengers for a while.

Weird to see Doc Savage on the list, I always forget that Marvel licensed him for a bit.

awwww poor pietro

(Also, Jan deserves to be a three star character, hmph)

I'd love to see the villains list.

The tumblr that had this didn't have a villains list :<

glad to see dracula getting his due

I want to know more about Ringo Kid

He was one of their Western heroes.

Sue always getting put below the boys.

That's how you can tell this is a 70s list
