Beep You Epic Games Comic Book Podcast with Mendte, Mr. Maurer, and Mashko

There’s another disaster brewing in Fortnite and thanks to Epic Games, this one is really hitting home. If you remember a few months back we talked to writer Garrett Gunn about his upcoming projects which included the fabulous Warcorns: Combat Unicorns, published by Source Point Press. Well Firesiders, it looks as if Epic Games is allegedly back to it’s old ways with borrowing other people’s intellectual property and profiting off it. In a new update coming soon to Fortnite, players will be able to purchase “skins” of Unicorns outfitted with military style weapons and gear. Now if this sounds familiar it’s because that is literally the exact character design and story behind Warcorns: Combat Unicorns.  To make matters worse for Epic Games, the advertising presented to the public looks like panels straight out of Gunn’s comic book.

In this short one-shot issue Mr. Maurer, Mendte and Mashko break down the story and make a point of spreading the word to everyone about this assault on the Independent Comic Book scene.

Checkout our initial interview with Garrett below.
