Part of the attraction to American comics when I was young was the small adds for everything from ant farms to x-ray specs. It was all stuff you either couldn't get in this country or it was so expensive that your parents wouldn't get it for you even if they could. AND what really peed me off was that Yank kids could get it dirt cheap any day they wanted.
I really wanted to be American when I was eight!
