I remember in the 70's they had FrankenBerry, Count Chocula, Booberry cereal. I even remember them having a more fruity one with a werewolf on the box. Does anybody remember what it was called?

Here's a cereal trivia question from the 60's: Yes, Quisp was a great cereal (though there were several cereals with identical ingredients and tastes, just different shapes... the major one was of course Cap'n Crunch). Always guaranteed to have a great prise in the box or a prise offer on the back of the box! Now the question: What artist drew Quisp, and who was Quisp's major rival (he also had a cereal of his own name). Going online to look up the answer is cheating. You either know it, or you don't! I'm cereal!

Most of the grocery stores carry it. Kroger's, H-E-B, Brookshires, and some others.

Quisp and Quake. Quake was a guy in a hard hat. I don't know the artist.

Altek and CP together win the prize (the toy inside the Quisp box). Quisp and Quake were drawn by Jay Ward of Rocky and Bullwinkle fame. Quake started out as an overweight underground miner (with hard hat). Quake could dig through rock at high speeds. They slimed him down and gave him a cowboy hat in later years, but he never became more popular than that alien with Quazy energy, Quisp. Perhaps Quisp was drawn with inspiration from moon men Gidney and Cloyd, who appeared in early Rocky and his Friends episodes.

You can still order Quisp cereal, Quisp T-shirts, and even Quisp watches online at www.quisp.com.

Neuro
William Conrad (remember the fat detective?) did the voiceover for Quake, and Daws Butler voiced Quisp.
