Superman, defender of law and order, champion of equal rights. Finally, courageous fighter against the forces of hate and prejudice, who today turns the tables on very white and lowest lane to repay them for their April Fool's joke, and to teach them that a practical joke is no joke at all.
We'll join them in a moment, but first, here's a good tip from Dan McCullough. Say gang, how are you about running errands for mother? Well, it pays to be willing, you know, and particularly when she sends you to the grocery store, because chances are she's ordering another package or two of Kellogg's pet.
And that's always good because it means that you're going to have the exciting fun of finding your prize inside. Maybe it'll be one of those brand new second-series comic buttons to add to your collection, like Andy Gump, for instance, with his funny nose and his mustache, or a Popeye with his silly hat and corn cob pipe, or Superman himself.
Every single one of these comic strip characters looks just as real and just as lifelike as he does in the funny papers. And are these new second series buttons smart looking? White and emerald background on real sturdy metal with a picture of your funny sheet favorites, reproduced in brilliant red and yellow and blue and black.
