Pillow books of snooze power
[Shop ThinkGeek] These pillow books are exclusive to ThinkGeek. Why? They invented them. It’s common sense.

Short film: Concerning Dragons
A short animation by Kieran Duncan that’s part MSc project and done in association with Axis Animation. It’s an unofficial tie in with the release of The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug.

Punk Storm cosplay
Many years ago the X-Men’s storm went through a punk phase. She had a mohawk and all the leather look. I think Kurosune has captured the style well. Not sure how close I’d like to get to this spiky storm! Picture by Jamais Vu and costume by Kick Custom Design.
Pikachu chooses Space Marine armour
This is some curveball cosplay from Australian Supanova Pop Culture Expo. We’ve Pikachu, the zappy Pokemon, as an inspiration for what looks like Warhammer 40K Space Marine armour. No wonder she’s won so many badges.
