DC Comics Advertising on TV5393

Was just watching The Fifth Element on SyFy (Bruce Willis with hair, and it’s blonde!) and there was a commercial for DC comics. Not TV shows with their characters, but to actually buy comics. Never saw that before. Anyone else see the commercial? Do you think Marvel and others will follow suite? Are they being proactive or reactive?

I don't recall EVER seeing a comic book commercial on TV. Lots of news stories and a few documentaries. But never an actual commercial advertising comic books.

That would be interesting to see. I wonder if it is available on youtube?

I did see that commercial, @esaravo, History channel maybe. With all the movies and what-not, don’t think Marvel really feels the need for commercials. This #1000 hype is givin me flashbacks of the death of Superman.

I think so, but that might be a slightly shorter version. Definitely not showing Superman, Batman, or Wonder Woman, but a new bunch of heroes (that I never heard of).

@RexMuff - You would get along great with one of my fishing buddies. He named his boat “Wake and Bake.”
