    Hostess comic book ads

    I just can't get enough of these Hostess comic book ads. I actually used to go out to buy these Hostess snacks just because the comic book showed all the superheroes passing them out to all these villains.

            Here's every ad ever published, as well as a few parodies:

              ^Wow, Sean Baby. Hadn't thought of that guy in years.

              Did The Fly debut in the Hostess ad first, or an actual Marvel story?

                      And the Hawkman vs Golden Raven:

                      I have thought about making them into some type of action figure but I did not know what type.

                            I'll definitely be checking out these links, fun reading while munching on some hostess twinkies.

                              Lots of Curt Swan on the DC side of these. The Marvels seemed to vary more.
