Currently, the chain is pushing its themed pizza with toppings (or lack thereof) representing different members of the Fantastic Four. Getting a cute little comic book nod in this ad was unexpected, to say the least. Giganto’s first appearance came in Marvel’s First Family comic book debut, which gets homa
