My business trip started with a taxi ride from the bottom of Leith Walk in Edinburgh, I got to London, spent two days in business meetings and then flew home. I read Barricade in that time. I mention my own travelling not just to illustrate how fast moving and compelling Barricade is but also because […]

A gallery of space art from Fred Gambino
Last week I gave the cyborg thumbs up to the Art of Fred Gambino in a full length review. This is an artist who’s worked with likes of WizKids, LEGO, National Geographic and even Der Speigel. The review included a video tour of the book to showcase Gambino’s fine style and work. Geek Native video […]
That’s no rug!
The geeky retail experts over at Think Geek have done it again. They’re selling Star Wars in all sorts of clever ways. This isn’t a rug. This is a a Death Star rug! Nope. You don’t need to dress up like a rebel X-Wing fighter in order to play on it. If you are tempting […]

Game of Thrones: What is the R+L=J theory?
If you know nothing about Game of Thrones or the Song of Ice and Fire then this post is full of spoilers. If you’ve been watching the series or reading the book then this post contains speculation rather than spoilers. Who is Jon Snow’s mother? He’s believed to be Ned Stark’s bastard son. The R+L=J […]
Sailor Moon gifs turned into a D&D adventure party
Have you ever wondered what the Sailor Moon characters would look like if they were a typical D&D adventuring party? You know; a paladin, a rogue, a wizard, ranger and so forth? No? The rather talented Sasha Mutch did. Oh yeah. Sasha not only drew the mashup as a series but animated them too. Perfect. […]
Cyberpunkish: A review of Koko Takes a Holiday
I think “cyberpunk” is a suitable word for Kieran Shea’s “Koko Takes a Holiday”. It’s not a perfect fit. It’s hard to put tropical islands and furries into that particular genre but they’re there along with the dystopian future, body modification, gangs and corporate culture in this holiday. I struggled with the start of Koko […]

ICv2 are reporting that the Draw Another Circle purchase of Hastings as been approved. Draw Another Circle is a company owned by Joel Weinshanker, owner of WizKids and their parent company NECA. This looks like a case of vertical expansion as Weinshanker takes control of some 126 superstores and an ecommerce platform that sells geeky […]
The world’s first family robot
This video for Jibo is impressive. Will it actually be this good? This could well be the first ever “family robot”. You have the chance to support it. You could say you have the chance to sow the seeds of the robot revolution. No downside to that, right? [Back this Campaign] There are 30 days […]
Marvel announce all-new Captain America. Guess who?
It seemed unlikely that Steve Rogers would be able to carry on as Captain America in the current comic book series. Rogers has lost his Super Soldier Serum and is aging. He’s in no position to throw the shield. The new Captain America doesn’t have the Super Soldier Serum either. The new Captain America, the […]
