Wizards without Coats: The un-wed
There are places in the world where the wedding season never comes! < PreviousWizards without CoatsNext > Zombies? No, it appears we have made it to the abandoned city… of the… un-wed! The constant moaning… the shuffling around without meaning or purpose. It’s scary. Some people are taunted by inner demons and won’t […]
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.

A review of The First Kingdom: Birth of Tundran
This is a classic. The First Kingdom was first published back in 1974, ran for over a thousand pages and finished three years later. The series is written and illustrated by Jack Katz and it’s a compelling style. Katz draws in tightly knit back and white, it’s a dense style that must have taken ages […]
DC Comic’s Constantine to get his own TV show
I was just moaning about Constantine in Irregular Reconnaissance when NBC go and announce a TV show. David Goyer (Batman Begins, Man of Steel) and Daniel Cerone (The Mentalist) are writing the script. This is interesting as we’ll be left to wonder whether the TV show will tie in with Guillermo del Toro’s Dark Universe […]
A review of Clockwork Watch: Breakaway
The first in the Clockwork Watch “series” is The Arrival and it really caught my attention. I put “series” in quotes because Clockwork Watch is more than just a comic book line; it’s a transmedia experience too. At least, I think that’s the term. There are LARPs to accompany it, events and art. The Anachronauts […]

Whereas they’ve been graphic novels before – like Serenity: The Shepherd’s Tale – there’s not been any comic books that really acted as a continuation of the Firefly series and Serenity movie. Until now. Now Dark Horse comics, who do the continuation of Buffy the Vampire Slayer for Joss Whedon, will publish a follow on […]
Wizards without Coats: No Shoes
Discrimination! < PreviousWizards without CoatsNext > Sign: No shoes, No shirt, No service. A sad day for hobbits at the Dancing Lich In… This week in Wizards without Coats, we tackle the serious issue of Halfling cultural neglect. When you issue a set of rules and guidelines, do you think about the Halflings? […]
Dan Abnett’s Kingdom to get sequel; Fiefdom
Dan Abnett’s 2000 AD series “Kingdom” is an action-packed comic book series in which genetically created dog-soldiers defend the Antarctic from mutant insect horrors. It’s a post-apocalyptic future that explores loyalty, nature and nurture as well as the sense of belonging but is very much a blood soaked action drama in fitting with the best […]

This is a chance to do quick catch-ups of the comic books and graphic novels that have found their way in front of my eyes in recent times.
