Writers, any fictional brands you use in your stories? Tell me about them. I am curious.

@hpkomic I have a few in Charmed Away. Magic mirrors serve as phones, and there's a social media platform called "Mira-Mira" (even though these days they're mostly hand mirrors, instead of being "on the wall").

The show is sponsored by the all new Potion of Love (We also catch glimpses of other drinks in the range, including Potion of Energy, Potion of Strength, and Potion of Mana)

And I haven't quite published this page yet, but Eternal Nyte cosmetics are also a sponsor.

@hpkomic The world of #Paragons (my superhero story) has a conglomerate called Midas International. In 2004, they released the world’s first mPhone (basically the iPhone, but three years early). They’ve also cracked cold fusion, using the process to produce clean nuclear power and renewable helium (which is a big market for them), they have their own private space program, and there are rumors they’re working to corner the shipping industry with teleportation.

@hpkomic Midas International bought out Voss Industries in the 1980s and slapped their name over every Voss subsidiary, except (possibly as a personal slight against Adam Voss himself) Voss Sanitation, a waste management company.

@hpkomic Some of my major characters work at Food Baron, which is a supermarket based on Food Lion (I know, big stretch). I'm also pretty happy with my Americanized Mexican restaurant El Taco.

@nickthewright I gotta catch up with the comic.

@hpkomic Awesome! Just started the second chapter a few weeks ago, so not too much to get through
