Okay, it's only taken us about three years to get here, so let's not waste another moment. Nobody's getting any younger!

However good omnibus collections of comicbooks or magazines may be, something is always missing. The ads and the smell of the paper are partly responsible for conjuring up the mood and memories of the period in which the publications of our youth were printed, and without those elements, the magic of such volumes is likely to be less potent than it otherwise could, would, and should be.
So having previously presented the contents of the 1966 oneshot On The SCENE Presents SUPER HEROES, I thought I'd complete the series by showcasing the ad pages in order to give you a fuller flavour of the magazine and the time in which it first appeared. As well as ads for AURORA plastic kits, there's a plethora of various other pulsating products that American kids had at their fingertips, and British kids could, in the main, only dream of.
Hopefully these scans will somewhat satiate your yearnings for yesteryear - even if only in a small way. So what are you all waiting for? The past awaits your presence, and will not be denied. The present will still be here when you're ready to return.
