Comics Buyer’s Guide 741 – Jabuary 29, 1988

The happenings bringing ’89 to an end

The paper features a strip celebrating noteworthy titles of ’87

I’m a big fan of Concrete. It’s fun to see him listed next to Swampy.

Extreme close-up!

Like many CBGs of the time, it features their Swamp Thing contest

The promo would have been really fun to win.

Another Superman/peanut butter strip. What’s the story with Superman and peanut butter? I remember there being a Superman branded peanut butter at one time. Trufan Adventures Theater #1 also features a parody strip of Superman. He hawks peanut butter and isn’t happy about it. You’ll never read more about peanut and superman than you you will right here, at rootsoftheswampthing.com

The double page ads make for great posters.

Superboy’s eyes slowly drift further apart
