The greatest product placement hero in comic book history was Captain Tootsie, created and produced by the CC Beck studio (the same folks that gave us all those great adventures of the original Fawcett comics' Captain Marvel), and published in two issues by Toby press in October and December of 1950.
This 12-pager is from The Adventures of Captain Tootsie and the Secret Legion #2

Ger Appledorn from Those Fabuleous Fifties has posted a whole buncha "Captain Tootsie" comic book scans. These were Tootsie Roll advertisements in comic book format from the pen of C.C. Beck and the same crew that brought us the classic Captain Marvel comics from Fawcett in the 1940's and 50's.
