Notes: Actual coupon to mail in to get the gun is blank. Likely this ad was reprinted from the original US comic, but the coupon was blanked out so that Canadian kids couldn't order.

Notes: Uncertain if all mentioned titles were actually published by Bell. Online search found no references to "Martin Comic Group", likely that Bell was unable (legally) to put "Marvel" even though most (all?) of these titles were Marvel comics.
