Even if the cereals don't get new author-inspired brands, as you proposed, they could be "serial cereals" with continuing stories each month (and there's many public domain classics to choose from). Who knows...might even inspire someone to pick up a book. I feel similarly about using pre-movie time at the theaters, not for cheesy local real estate agent advertising, but for aspiring animators and artists, perhaps funded by advertisers.
