Humor: Doomsday Snickers Ad Appears in SUPERMAN Comic, Confusing Readers
Comic books are no strangers to off the wall advertising. In fact, when I first read this news on Geekologie my mind was instantly overwhelmed by thoughts of Hostess Fruit Pies and how they get so much better when you put them in the microwave. While those ads were fairly obvious, this recent Snickers ad was not.
In the midst of reading a Superman battle with Doomsday, Twitter user Dave Howlett turned the page only to see Batman appear...and offer Doomsday a Snickers.
DC put this ad in the middle of a comic where Superman is ACTUALLY FIGHTING DOOMSDAY and it was super confusing. pic.twitter.com/vjh0m2C1NW

Batman's utility belt really does have everything, doesn't it? Supposedly, the real battle continued after the full two page ad, but I can't imagine the look on people's face when they saw that!
