    Was Legend of the Superheroes Ever Advertised on a Cereal Box?

    After listening to Earth2Chris and Brian mention the notorious Legend of the Superheroes on the latest (GREAT) episode of SuperMates podcast, it got me thinking of a memory which I could use confirmation of.

    Does anyone remember there being an ad for the show on the back of a box of cereal, perhaps Cheerios? I have a memory of a full back of the box illustration of all the heroes and villains together, but I cannot find any evidence of it.

    I'll admit, it could be a false memory.

    But if anyone would know, it would likely be someone here. Anyone remember this, or was this a Fruit Loops hallucination?

    Not sure about that? I don't remember anything like that on a cereal box, but it is possible, Cheerios or Frosted
    Flakes could have done something like that. Not to long ago, Cheerios had a mini comic book inside there boxes
    it was DC characters, a different story from each of the Justice League heroes.

      I remember quite a bit of advertising leading up to the first of the two shows. I wouldn't be a bit surprised if they had pulled in a cereal sponsor in the process. Quite possible. I know they were wanting to make a series out of that, so there had to be some effort to attract their target audience through product advertising.
