Oo. Shudder. It’s getting dark earlier. The winter is drawing in. This is the time of the year that horrors begin to bubble closer to the surface in nightmares and visions. Let’s turn our attention to the world K.L. Turner, aka Electixx, a conceptual artist of surreal skill. For your dreaming wisdom; Gigantocephalopodes irradiatus Moorish […]

Get your zomb on for Halloween: Dead Roots Kickstarter
[Back this Campaign] Here’s a well timed Kickstarter. Zombie action in time for Halloween. We’ve featured Dead Roots on Geek Native before and know it packs a quality, if undead, punch. This Kickstarter is for the printed edition, bringing together all four editions plus extra content. Geek Native spoke to Mike Garley about the project. […]
Kawaii dragons and beasties to keep your dice safe
The Dragons and Beasties Etsy shop warns that it usually empty because creations sell out very quickly. As I write this blog post there’s nothing for sale. The good news is that Becca Golins’ archives her fantastic work at her Deviant Art page. This blogger has subscribed to the Etsy RSS. Never bought from Etsy […]
British Ninja Turtles
Let’s drop “Teenage” from the title because these British ninja mutants don’t sound teenage at all. They sound safely middle aged. You might even suspect they sound rather English too but wait to the end of the video before you decide. This video was creathed by Paul Benton about a year ago. Since then he’s […]
Help the Robins of Wayne Manor get on the road
[Back this Campaign] Robins on the Road is an Indiegogo campaign to support three Aussie cosplayers in a tour of the States. I suppose the best reason to support the campaign is to help three young, talented, geeks on a journey of a lifetime. That said; look at the perks. There are lots of small […]
They Might Be…: A Review of AGE Bestiary – Giants
Giants have been an frequent and diverse threat in movies and TV over the last few years – whether the engineers of Prometheus, the Frost Giants of Thor, the trolls from Lord of the Rings, or Hodor from A Game of Thrones (okay, Hodor might not be a threat to most, but you still don’t […]
Spooky Carnage cosplay versus sexy Black Cat
Black Cat’s legion of fans might appreciate the cosplay here but I suspect they’ll be less keen on the outcome of the fight. Carnage fans, on the other hand, get some cracking cosplay as well as a victory. Perhaps I should have saved this one for Halloween? The photographer is Ocean-san at Deviant Art, Black […]
A look inside: Batman – Arkham City Escape board game
Is it too early to be thinking of Christmas gifts? Perhaps we should concentrate on the matter at hand – escaping Arkham City prison. The board game Batman: Arkham City Escape is a two player game, with the playing board a large area of a walled-off section of the Arkham City prison. One player acts as […]
Doctor Who: Day of the Doctor teaser
What’s to be said for this video from the BBC? It’s not a Day of the Doctor trailer? It’s a teaser. It tells us to watch the #SaveTheDay hashtag. There’s a strange accent, I think, too. The Day of the Doctor is the 75 minute 50th Anniversary Special for Doctor Who. It’s expected to feature […]
Is this the ultimate Nintendo orchestra medley?
This is The String Player Gamer’s opus. An orchestral cover of many of your favourite classic Nintendo tunes. Nicely, the medley doesn’t linger too long on any one tune so it’s fairly fast paced and there’s plenty of variety. The musical nerd also manages to blend the tunes together skilfully and collection works as a […]
