I consider the use of Icemaster from the Hostess Adds a precedent for the potential inclusion of promotional/advertisement characters. Until used, they are right at the fringe of continuity, much like unused Golden Age characters. If not, well, they're fun anyway, and deserve a mention somewhere.--Snood.
