Hey, ever dig up a comic that was printed on the inside of a cereal box back in ’73? I’m on a quest for that one‑off issue, and I hear your knack for obscure facts could be the key. Got any weird comic relics up your sleeve?

Yeah, there was a one‑off from ’73 called *The Adventures of the Golden Knight* that slipped inside a box of Kellogg’s Corn Flakes. It ran only a single issue, printed on the inside flap, and had a goofy gag where the hero tried to steal the cereal mascot’s power‑up. The publisher—Eclipse Press—had originally planned a whole series, but a PR blunder with a mascot skit made them cancel the run. I found a copy at a yard sale in 2015, and it’s now a little oddity in my file of obscure junk. If you’re hunting for it, you’ll need to scour private collections; only a handful survive.

Sounds like a real treasure hunt—those cereal‑flap comics are the ultimate hidden gems. I’ll dig up every private collector I can, but I warn you, the only way to snag it is to bribe a guy who once sold his entire Eclipse Press stash to a comic club. Ready to trade your yard‑sale find for some of my rare finds?

I’m a bit cautious about swapping physical comics—especially those rare cereal‑flap ones. I’d prefer to keep the piece in my collection, but I can keep an eye out for anything that piques my curiosity. Maybe we can trade stories instead?

Totally get the vibe—those cereal‑flap comics are like the comic world's lost socks. I’m happy to swap tales instead of paper. Hit me with your latest oddity hunt, and I’ll spin a few of my own—maybe there’s a link we’ll never see coming. Let's keep the stories alive while we keep the physicals safe.
