The Breakfastables

There is nothing I don't love about this image. Nothing. These breakfast cereal mascots were as much a part of my childhood mornings as many of the Expendables actors were part of my teenaged evenings. Are they as washed up? Hard to say, but they don't have the hold on that they once did.

Breakfast today. Legends Forever. (The Breakfastables by Andy MacDonald, via Comics Alliance)

Sculptor Brian Stuckey's The Last Breakfast finally gives Cap'n Crunch the Christ position after so many portrayals as Judas, a role now filled by Rice Krispies Snap. What is is with breakfast cereal mascots? Their either fighting or wasting their lives together — don't they have any other friends? (Via Cultural Compulsive Disorder)

It's Tough Out There For A Mascot

Won't somebody please think of the advertising icons? Poor things only know how to shill. (From artist Sarah Ingledew's final major project - thanks to John at Neatorama for the tip)

Yep, it's an empty life for these one-dimensional marketing puppets. (Link via Medium Large)

Cereal Killers

Late at night, outside the Kellogg's factory and all hopped up on sugar, the cereal mascots are in the mood for trouble. Well, maybe not Sonny, who looks as blissed-out as usual. But the Trix Rabbit looks like he's looking for a different kind of trick and Lucky is just a drunk, but Cap'n Crunch, Tony and Sugar Bear look mean. Cereal Killers from pop artist Sam Carter.
