365 Days of DC House Ads, Day 226: Yo, Joe!


House ad for DC Special #5 (October-December 1969); printed in Green Lantern #72 (October 1969)
Ad designed and lettered by Gaspar Saladino

Sadly I don't have this amazing-looking issue spotlighting the late, great Joe Kubert:

...so I don't know how Joe can become the world's greatest super heroes. But if it's half as wonderful as this issue of The Brave and the Bold where Jim Aparo saves Batman and Sgt. Rock by drawing their comic book...

...well, then, DC Special #5 must be very special indeed.
