So where do we stand here? The DC Cinnamon Mini-Buns comics are still two reviews short because I can’t find “Superman Vs. Metallo” or “Justice League Vs. Amazo”. Trying to find more Legions Of Power not only failed but one of the links just goes to BW Media Spotlight and the one comic I found while Google AI just found my list of wanted comic scans. I should do an updated version of that someday now that I’ve found websites with some of the ones off of that list.
However, I did accidentally find a NEW comic we can discuss, or rather series of comics so short that a compilation file on the Internet Archive went to about 34 pages, including a stand-in cover. All I can find out about Batman’s team-up with Kellogg’s Pop-Tarts is that isn’t Kellogg’s but Good Humor. If the research is accurate, this is a series of Good Humor bars licensing the Pop-Tarts name and using their flavors as ice cream flavors. Sounds interesting, but I think it’s only available in the United Kingdom, or was. I don’t know for sure.
In 1966 a promotional tie-in with National Comics (future DC Comics) did a series of minicomics recreating old issue of Batman and Detective Comics. They are not reprints in comic strip form. I used the internet to check. Half of them are actually original tales, while the other half are essentially abridge versions of already short Silver Age Batman stories. They’re new art and even some new character designs for guest characters. The DC Fandom wiki says they’re “Earth One” versions of the “Earth Two” stories, where the Golden and early Silver Age still happened. And DC wonders why they’re continuity is always a mess. You can read along with me. This is why I do this series, folks. To find the weird stuff.
