Hershey's Superhero Bar




(Hershey's 2020) Poor DC comics. Anytime anything highlights the Justice League movie it just commands unfortunate Avengers comparisons. While I certainly would not recognize an Ant Man or Black Widow logo (really any of the team's four [!!!] bug/arachnid-themed characters' symbols other than Spidey's), Marvel is smart enough not to make themselves look like chumps by putting unrecognizable grsphics out there. The new Justice League candy bar includes an arguably semi-recognizable Aquaman logo, but also, in the lower right hand corner, a completely unknown logo, which by the process of elimination must be for Cyborg.



That it sort of-kind of resembles the Chappelle's Show logo I guess is cool. That I found a different unrecognizable official Cyborg logo on Amazon is less cool. Also, unlike this picture from the Hershey's site, my bar had a Wonder Woman logo shaped like boobs. Also there are 60s Batman sound effects chocolate squares and a 1950s Batmobile, so branding is all over the place. Just all very weird. Plus, no almonds.
