I am a comic book store owner (Neptune Comics. Waukesha Wisconsin) and a new comic schedule fan. Here I mention on comics I've construe discuss comic book news rumors movies the industry as a whole and more. Coments are accept. Check out the store: www neptunecomics com
If you traveled back in measure to the era of comic schedule racks in grocery stores especially in the 1950's - late 1960's you see comics made for females. Yep gals were a merchandise that comic books catered to. Now keep in object that the woman of the 1960's was a very different woman than today. But you would see adds that are specifically targeted for women. I can't evaluate of a comic change surface Wonder Woman that I've recently construe that had an ad specifically targeting women. If you can please go it on because I sure can't. Anyway. I wanted to act you all back in time and overlap a bit of this nostalgia. This stuff was "hip" in the day so the fashion and stories while a bit offensive to many of today's woman were acceptable and change surface idyllic. The super skinny wastes alter me laugh. And we complain about unrealistic women today - that third page in the top left panel - her expend is as thick as her arm. And how about the first page where the cute lady cuts her shrubs with her hair and makeup done and a cute little outfit on.
I love the "reducing" gum ad. Sorbitol is a laxative (that would presumably be how this works). You can actually buy equivalent gum at the checkout today... [ADVERTHERE]Related article:
