Deliciously appropriate product tie-ins

In the history of bad super-hero costumes, I think the Joel Schumacher Batman and Robin Nipple designs have to take home the Oscar (pardon the pun). His fetishistic take on these iconic figures put a stake in the heart of the movie franchise, which made this product tie-in ad I found in one of the Great Random Comics Pile just about perfect:

Batman and Robin Fruit Snack

Batman's glare seems to be saying "Yes, I'm being called a fruit right here on this box, and because I have been given nipple armor (not shown), I am powerless to react. Not that there's anything wrong with that. And Robin, if I've told you once I've told you a thousand times, get your left hand away from there!"

    Don’t forget Batman’s extra long codpiece that he keeps tripping over in that movie.

    Dude, that is hilarious. And he wore a codpiece? Well, I guess I don’t fit in with the people of this particular ad… but do you, Frankie?
