Geeky art collection – 5 mystery prints
Right now pop-culture and music retailer Zavvi have a ‘very time limited’ offer on in which you get 5 mystery prints for £9.99. I didn’t even know Zavvi sold prints. I was inspired to take a look. The mystery print deal seems to be capped at a retail value of £25 so the chances of […]
Cinematic montage explodes with greatness and over 300 clips
This is the second cinematic montage from GameOvais and it is incredible. It’s hard not to become a champion for cinema after watching a collection like this. It’s worth keeping your geek hat on too and watch how many of these great films are directly inspired or taken from geeky titles. There’s over 300 movies […]
Adam Savage shows off his mecha-glove from Hellboy
This is an open-ended but very complex project. It’s also clearly a labour of love for Adam Savage. It’s based on a glove that’s seen briefly in the movie. He wants two gloves and explains this means he’ll try and build four. Why? In the process of building the gloves he fully expects to ruin […]
Superhero Week: Tribal art meets superheroes
These designs are by Native American illustrator Jeffrey Veregge. Veregge has studied traditional salish art and grew up on a reservation known locally as LIttle Boston. Veregge’s site is well worth checking out. He describes his work as reflection of a lifetime love affair with comic books. That’s our type of artist. Keeping up with […]

In Hellboy lore the day in which he was summoned to England is 23rd December 1944. Here’s […]
A look at Guillermo del Toro: Cabinet of Curiosities
This is a big and impressive book. Guillermo del Toro is a hugely popular director among native geeks with a string of hits. He was director on Mimic, Blade II, Hellboy, Pan’s Labyrinth and Pacific Rim. He even has producer credits on the likes of Kung Fu Panda, Megamind and Rise of the Guardians. He […]
Hell… girl
This picture was snapped by Branwyn Bigglestone while out and about at the Emerald City Comicon. Gender swapping is a solid part of cosplay. Here at Geek Native this little blog sees the post Superheroes transofrmed into women getting visits throughout the year along with the debate on the treatment of women. There’s a Hellgirl […]
Cardboard Hellboy cosplay
What a good idea. Effective cosplay. Budget friendly cosplay too. The creator is Jason Welborn who has done all Hellboy fans justice with this lateral thinking. Is it wrong to tag this post as papercraft? Via Fanboy Fashion.
Hellboy meets Peanuts
I’m a fan of Francesco Francavilla. We have creative ideas with near perfect execution. In this case we take two geeky areas; Hellboy and Peanuts, apparently miles apart and mash them together. The result makes the two competing art styles look like a perfect fit – although it’s the Hellboy story that wins through. The […]
