We continue a MONTH of I Saw It Advertised One Day! Each day this January you'll get a piece looking at advertisements in comic books over the decades that amused me for whatever reason. In each installment, we'll take a look at three ads!

Here is an archive of all installments of this feature.

Enjoy!

Man, it's one thing to try to advantage of kids for a few bucks, but trying to get over on servicemen?

Weak!!!

I am almost certain that nothing radioactive was used in making these glow-in-the-dark neckties from 1944, but I have decided to pretend that they were using radium to make them glow.

And the timing is close enough for my pretending to be realistic!

I love the idea of some kid out there thinking that Arak was, like, the biggest character DC had in the 1980s.

"What do you mean, his comic got canceled a year after this ad and only lasted for four years total?!?! I have his action figure!!!"

That's all for this installment! If you can think of some goofy comic book ads you'd like to see me feature here, drop me a line at bcronin@comicbookresources.com. Do not make suggestions in the comment section, so that they can still be a surprise for future readers! In fact, I think I'll just delete comments that contain future suggestions.
