 Off topic but I call BS on marvel zombies too.  They ate the entire human poulation in like a week.  I did the math once and it was like each marvel zombie would have to eat 60,000 people per second.

We all have a picture(s) of ourselves from days gone by that we look at now and say, "what the heck was I thinking?" Ads in comics are no different. What's your favorite cringeworthy ad featured in a comic? Below is one I recently came across and just thought, WTF...

Passable look for a bowling team, not so much a super-hero.

I would take a Large in Blue today. Perfect for that spring or fall con. I can't read the pink -script. Does it give a copyright date? Is this 1980s?

Cant tell what the fine print is. I’ll have to dig it out. Yeah, it’s 1988 I think. Punisher War Journal 4 or 5. 

My reaction is less about the product  and more about the ad itself. lol

New York gets cold-but superheroes they are just fine in spandex or skimpy cleavage/thong outfits for the ladies.  I call BS.  They would wear jackets.

They’re superheroes.  If they can survive being hit by the Hulk, surely they can handle the cold.

Completely, utterly irrelevant, but I'll play.

The reason behind it is zombie depression, compensated for by an increasing craving for brains and overeating.

Yup.  It'd be amusing to Photoshop a polar bear and a honey badger in there instead.

Possibly a necessary purchase after a Charles Atlas or Count Dante training course, after overdoing the Dynamic Tension or extreme martial arts.
