24 Strangest Celebrity Cameos In Comic Book History

12. Pat Boone

Noted for his contributions to both country and gospel, singer Pat Boone became a cultural icon during the 1950s. It was inevitable that his broad appeal would make way into the comic book world, which he did in a 1959 issue of Superman's Girl Friend, Lois Lane. It turns out Lois is a big fan of the singer and the handsome devil offers to do a duet with her about Superman. Clark writes the song, but he finds out he's accidentally written the first letter of every verse to spell out his secret identity, resulting him spending most of the issue blocking Lois and Pat's singing before rewriting the song to be less revealing.

11. Ann Blyth

Ann Blyth was a rising star in the ranks of Hollywood, who became popularised for her roles in a variety of Broadway musicals including: Watch on the Rhine, Chip Off the Old Block, and Bowery to Broadway. However, her departure to a more dramatic role in Mildred Pierce set her up as an actress of Hollywood as well. Similar to Orson Welles, producers for Blyth's upcoming picture Mr. Peabody and the Mermaid decided to turn to the comic book world to aid in promotion. The result was Action Comics #130, wherein Superman becomes infatuated with a real-life mermaid called Ann Blyth, who leads him around on a series of adventures involving treasure hunting and fighting off the kraken, much to the chagrin of Lois Lane.
