The cover to the Amazing Spider-Man issue #666 is an odd one. Spider-Statue-of-Liberty anyone? Issue #666 is the prelude to a new ‘event’ from Dan Slott and Humberto Ramos. The cover is by Mike Del Mundo. Here’s what Marvel Senior Editor Stephen Wacker said in a recent blog post; “Back when Slott launched Spider-Man into the […]
RPG Character Illustrations walkthrough
RPG Character Illustrations is a useful resource for gamers like myself – gamers without an atom of artistic talent. The site gives you a way to order custom crafted and hand illustrated character portraits at a resonable price.

Cutest Star Wars ever?
Inspired by the old Disney insignias created in World War II, artist Dave Mott has created some Star Wars insignias in a similar style. I think they maybe some of the cutest Star Wars art I’ve ever seen. Who wouldn’t want one of those Tauntauns? Or who would dare go up against Ackbar?
Freaky Chinese Star Wars babies pimp Adidas
Okay, the word “Freaky” springs to mind. I’m not sure I even noticed the Adidas logo for a while. It’s there, though, and these Chinese baby posters are to promote the Star Wars X Adidas Originals series. The artist who created these, er, posters, is Dorophy Tang and she certainly has a knack for creating […]
Excel Mario
At the start of the day we had the clever geeky joke and art of Excel Batman. While I’m not going to say that the Batman art wasn’t sophisticated (it’s certainly far better than I could do) I am going to suggest that other talented people could do better. For example, Mario fans might be […]

Yeah, that’s right, it’s been 25 years of Zelda goodness. Did Geek Native blog about it? Nope! Too busy. Probably playing Fallout: New Vegas. Is there a chance in heck this blog will fail to blog about this Zelda painting? No chance! Check it out. But, no, wait. That’s just the summary. This is the […]
Trail of Cthulhu book cover posters
I think Jérome Huguenin Rough Magicks cover is one of my favourite Cthulhu RPG illustrations. As it happens, Pelgrane Press has it and two others for sale in A2 poster form. If I bought one… just not sure where I’d put it. On the wall behind my desk at the office? Rough Magicks Arkham Detective […]
Batman Valentine’s Day
I think Deviant Artist Acturbo will have hit the nail on the head for many people this Valentine’s Day. Batman Forever Alone might be the only illustration of Batman (evah!) that justifies the decision to give Gotham’s dark knight a pink costume!
Pictures from The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Skyrim is the fifth in the series of Elder Scrolls RPGs from Bethesda Softworks. It’ll be out for the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 and you should expect an adult, sandbox, immersive RPG. That’s if the game is anything like the first four. Skyrim is set some 200 years after the end of Oblivion and […]
One Earth: Syfy and Trion in first TVMMO
Syfy and Trion will be working together to produce a collaborative TV show and MMO. Syfy, as you’d expect, are doing the TV show and Trion are doing the MMO. What’s interesting about this is how the two will converge into one. The project currently has the code name “One Earth” and it seems fitting. […]
