There have been many ads over the years in comic books. They have ranged from conservative to just plain weird. Everyones favorite weird (or at least close to weird) ads have been the Hostess ads like the one with Superman that you see above. I love Hostess cupcakes but I never thought they had such a powerful taste that it could save the world. If you notice in that last panel Superman tells the store manager to send the bill to Clark Kent. He has done this in hie regular comic book adventures as well as his old TV show "The Adventures of Superman." Didn't anyone ever wonder why Clark was nice enough to pay for all the damage that Superman caused? You can't be too bright if you live in a comic book type world.The second ad I don't recall seeing before but it still seems vaguely familier. Spider-man is asking Marvel comic book readers what Ads they like to see in their comic books. Marvel must have been doing awfully well at the time. I don't know of any company that would turn down anyone willing to pay money to advertise on their product. Unless it was for some moral reason. The Spider-Man ad I noticed Invincible Super-Blog.
