Comic Book Product Placement

People normally like to read comic books to escape reality but it seems reality is catching up all too quickly. Our (*cough* my) favourite super heroes like Batman, Spiderman and Iron Man may be able to save mankind from all kinds of disasters but they are powerless to stop one thing: advertisers splashing products all over the pages of the comics they call home. Check out these examples as proof.
