Disclose Notes: Parody of the ad for a model submarine which appeared on the back covers of Silver-Age comic books.

The back cover ads on all Krazy Little Comics titles appeared, at first glance, to be genuine ads of the era. All of these were drawn by Art Spiegleman, now famous for his Pulitzer Prize-winning graphic novel, Maus.
