Ok Firesiders, I have to be honest with you... I have no idea what to say about this issue. Maurer still isn’t back and Mendte and Features are welcomed once again by Felix Hergood at Emergent Gamer studios. Reggie aka OBG is still hanging out, and the show starts normal enough... That changes quickly though. They try and talk about Reggie’s comic book history and Felix’s Punisher collection but there was a bit of derailing. We also lose track of time so enjoy and extra long chat. All I can say is enjoy. Welcome to Fireside.

Welcome back Fireside Faithful! Due to unforeseen circumstances *cough*cough*Maurer*cough* we are out a studio. Luckily our good friends at the Emergent Gamer Podcast let us use theirs.

Greetings and Salutations Firesiders! Welcome to another Issue of Fireside Chats.  Where did you hear about comics or superheroes for the first time? Can't remember?  Was it a TV ad, action figure, magazine, movie, cartoon, radio ad? Today your favorite foursome from the fraternity of Fireside dive into a hot topic of "Advertising".  As an industry comic advertising has perplexed most.  Weird corporate tie ins, sparse TV and Radio ads, and billboards seem to be the standard.  But when was the last time you have seen major ad campaigns? Does the industry need it?  The guys talk about all this and try to become modern day Mad Men.  Welcome to Fireside.  Obey. Consume. Buy.
