Cake, Zoetrope and Tim Burton mashed together?
The zoetrope was an early device for animation or the illusion of movement. A line of pictures was placed in the middle of the drum, along the outside edge, with slits cut in the side so you could review them from the outside. The drum was spinned and it looked like the image was movnig […]
Cthulhu Tequila – this time the wyrm eats you
Would you wear a Cthulhu t-shirt? Would you wear a Cthulhu mashup t-shirt that brought in drinking? I would. I would most certainly don this design from T-Shirt Bordello.
Uber cute Star Wars prints
Etsy store Modern Home Prints has a limited number of these very cute Star Wars prints. The range includes a baby jawa, a baby Chewie and a “baby” R2-D”. This are exactly the sort of thing that wouldn’t look too geeky on your wall for the streamies and yet ooze geek cred to any fellow […]

Mark Millar’s CLiNT 2.1 review
This review is written by a comics geek who did not dive into Mark Millar’s CLiNT. I can’t articulate why I made that decision. Not in any credibly comprehensive way other than to um and err and mutter about commitment versus reward. CLiNT 2.1 gives me me and anyone else in my shoes a second […]
