Aquaman and the Space Capsule - Once again the porpoises are doing all the work.  Shame on you Aquaman.

Aquaman in Dirty Beach-Dirty beaches, underwater creatures and twinkies.  Looks like a job for Aquaman!

Aquaman in the Ice Age - Watch Aquaman battle a living iceberg.  Personally I think this ad would have been better for Hostess Snoballs but that is just me.

Aquaman in Pirate's Gold - If you are looking for cool pirates, look elsewhere.  Sorry, no Jack Sparrow.

Aquaman Meets the Manta Men - Actually it is Aquaman's wife.  I always thought when Mera was away from Aquaman, she was hanging out with Namor, but I guess I was wrong.

Batman in Captive Commissioner - Batman and Robin to the rescue of the commish and snack cakes!

Batman in Someone is Kidnapping the Great Chefs - Watch as Batman tries to figure out who is kidnapping Chef Boyardee, Betty Crocker and others.  OK, they really are not in it, but they should be.

Batman Upside Down - The Caped Crusader is turned every way but he never loses track of the tasty snack cakes.

Batman versus Sable Lady - Batman and Robin versus Sable Lady, vavavoom!

Batman vs the Mummy - Two thousand years can build up quite an appetite as the Mummy goes after the real golden treasure.

Bugs Bunny and Porky Pig - You didn't think that Bugs Bunny only ate carrots, did you?

Bullwinkle & Rocky - That's right, the other Dynamic Duo are pushing Cheerios here.  Sure, it isn't a Hostess ad, but it is very similar and that is good enough for me!

Captain America in Deciding Factor - Both Captain America and Nick Fury battle aliens with snack cakes.  Sounds like a Sci-Fi channel movie.

Captain America in Fury Unleashed - I like the Trapster better when he was called Paste Pot Pete.
