Foreign
Treasury Ads
Courtesy
TreasuryFriend Rogerio Baldino come super-cool
treasury ads from foreign editions!
Brand
new are two color
ads for Superman Vs. Shazam! and Secret Origins
of Super-Villains from Ebal issues of Jonah Hex
and Swamp Thing. Thanks as always Rogerio!
PANINI
"Here
are the Brazillian ads that Panini released at the time
they launched the last two Alex Ross' treasuries and JLA:
Heaven's Ladder. An interesting note:30 years after
EBAL published its first DC treasury ads in a Marvel comic
book, Panini did the same thing.
All
these ads were taken from Spider-Man and X-Men
magazines. After all this time, almost nothing has changed
about the way the brazillian publishing companies do
their marketing."
(Side
note: I absolutely love the second
Secret Origins ad--I think it's even nicer looking
than the book's cover!--Rob.)
EBAL
Says
Rogerio: "I took those 3 ads from the inside covers
of Homem-Aranha (Spider-Man), one of the B&W
comic books that EBAL published at that time.
Hey...DC
ads in a Marvel comic book?Since EBAL was the
owner of the rights of both publishers in Brazil
in the early 70's, I assume they thought their audience
would buy all the DC and Marvel comics anyway. As a
matter of fact, in 90% of the cases, they were right."
