1994 Advertisement for Wizard Magazine #32
We looked at a 1992 Wizard advertisement last week where I mentioned how that ad was from “before everything in the comic industry completely collapsed and changed forever.” Well, today’s 1994 ad — found in Spawn #17 — comes from the time when things in the comic industry were just starting to show come cracks.
What makes this ad especially fun is that it celebrates the Batman/Spawn cross-over books (find at Amazon.com*) which makes me want to dig out both the DC and Image releases and read them again. If my memory is right, neither book was all that fantastic, but the Image title — by Frank Miller and Todd McFarlane — was the better of the two. I know those books are around here somewhere . . .
