I'd like to bring this game back, if only to feature this one ad that I could not locate during the first run of this game, but which I found just a few days ago.
I forget the rules, but I think you get something if you can name what this ad is. And if you can't name it, you don't get anything. If there are any disagreements as to who is the winner, Cei-U will be the arbitrator.
I guess if they can make a Rocky 6, then I can bring back this game one mo time.
Here is the first clue.

I suppose G.I. Joe would be too obvious.

Is it binding arbitration or can we still file suit in District Court?

Army men?
(Just how vague can we be ...?)

Dat's the problem with this board, too many dang lawyers hangout here.
It's not G.I. Joe, America's moveable fighting man.
It's not armee men.

Well, that piccy is pretty consarned vague. Are they supposed to be WWII Russians? If so, they're miscoloured. More. The Red Army never had handbags as standard issue.

Not, to quote Seinfeld, that there's anything wrong with that.

Here is the second clue.
This is not something you would order from a comic book.

ROK I missed this contest previously... Just so I'm clear... Is the comic ad shown an artwork snippet from another comic book, and we are trying to guess that comic book?

No you are not trying to guess the comic book. The art is from an advertisement that appeared in comic books. You are trying to guess what the ad is for.
Also the rules state that you lose points for asking questions.:D
This one is tougher than usual because I wanted it to last until LR got back.
Here is the third clue. This ad appeared in comics published prior to 1983.

Something just clicked on that last image piece + clue...
Is this the ad for the movie "Zeppelin"?

That is correct.
Since you got it on the third clue, you win "Live Sea Monkeys".
Congratulations.
