11.      Superman made their comic debut in 1938 in Action Comics

44.      On March 30, 1981, President Reagan was shot as his was leaving a Washington hotel.

77.      Although the destruction that it causes is often terrible, cyclones benefit a much wider belt than they devastate.

It must be their devastate because this word is the word which describe cyclones. If we use they it will be grammatically wrong.
