A couple observations: the ad appears to say that the World of Krypton issue is #3, but that's actually the cover to #2.


And notice that two of the captions on the ad version of All-Out War are changed by the time the comic goes to press: "The Viking from Hell" becomes "The Viking Commando"; seeing as this is his first appearance, it's a good thing they decided on a name that wouldn't have the comic taken away from newsstands by parents irate over the double hockey-sticks word. (Altho' you could definitely buy the comic book Son of Satan.) And thankfully, "Soul Brother with Wings" become just "Brother with Wings." Also: The Viking Commando got an Army helmet pasted onto his head. All he needs now is a pair of little wings pasted onto the helmet.
