![Crest advertorial comic from 1984: 'The Crest Team in The Bubbles of Doom'. The title is formed out of rocks, as bolts of lightning and Cavity Creeps in hot air balloons made of bubblegum loom overhead.
Panel 1:
"Chucky loves to blow sugary bubblegum bubbles. Little does he realize his teeth are in great danger. Fortunately, he's spotted just in time by the CREST TEAM!"
Panel 2:
The Crest Team's screen captures Chucky blowing a bubblegum bubble.
Flor*: "Chucky's in trouble!"
R: "We've got to help him!"
*Flor is the only member of the team to have his name confirmed in Crest's advertising.
Panel 3:
Chucky gets teleported over to the Crest HQ.
"CREST to the rescue."
Panel 4:
Chucky: "Who are you?"
Flor: The Crest Team..."
E: "To help you fight cavities!"
Panel 5:
"Silently, swiftly, the Cavity Creeps drift toward Toothopolis in their bubblegum balloons."
Panel 6:
S: "Cavity Creeps attacking Toothopolis!"
T: "Let's burst their bubble."
Panel 7:
Chucky and the Team shoot the balloons with sodium fluoride guns.
Flor: "Take that! It's FLUORISTAT!"
Panel 8:
E: "Repelled by crest gel!"
Panel 9:
Chucky: "Crest really blew 'em away this time."
E: "But they'll be back to fight another day."
Panel 10:
Chucky gets teleported back home.
T: "Bye, Chucky. Remember..."
Panel 11:
Flor: "...See your dentist..."
S: [drawn with an 'r' emblem by mistake] "Watch sweets..."
R: "And brush often with great-tasting Crest gel."
