Toonfomercial: Remember Supermom? (1996)

 Coca-Cola decided to get back into the hero business in 1996 with the debut of Supermom, and ordinary housewife by day, heroine by night, if ya will. Her debut ad appeared during the Super Bowl, and, two years later, she was back, fighting aliens, then bringing one home to share Coke with the kiddo's...!

Edit, 10/16/20: The ad with the aliens has been privatized. Here's the original:


Too bad they ended the campaign, as folks want to see Supermom return.....

I liked these ads; not only a cool concept, but I liked how they tried to replicate a Golden Age comic book look and feel with the characters.

I too would've liked to have seen more of these. Maybe we could've gotten a glimpse of what the dad of this family was like. That might've been interesting.

Coke and/or its advertising agency gave up too soon. The animation was impressive.
