Superman Vs. Wonder Woman

sg
New Ad! This was one of those treasury ads I've seen in a thousand different DC books; always assuming I had scanned it in and put it up on the site long ago.

Then, when I flipped past it again today, I went "Wait a minute..."

It's a great ad, I love the b/w "file photo" motif.

Shazam!

New Fun Fact! In the newest issue of TwoMorrow's Back Issue! (#30), there's an extensive interview with the first TV Captain Marvel, Jackson Bostwick, and the subject of his appearance on a treasury comic comes up, thanks to interviewer P.C. Hammerlink!

Test Your Comics I.Q.

sg
New Ad! I found this unusual ad in a 1981 issue of the Marvel magazine Bizarre Adventures.

The answer to the question is Hulk, of course, when it really should have been Captain America. Although a treasury-sized Batman Vs. Thor book has its possibilities...

Looking at this now, it seems incomprehensible that an ad for The Comics Journal would be so superhero-centric.


Sorry for taking so long between updates, its been a little harder than usual finding treasury-related material!

New DC Treasury Ad

sg
New Ad! I'm always pleasantly surprised when I find yet another 70s-era DC treasury ad, because I tend to think I've found them all by now.

But I found this Xmas-themed one in an issue of The Phantom Stranger, of all things, so here it is!
