A Character I Used to Know: Game of Thrones s1 & 2
Warning – this video contains spoilers for a Game of Thrones series 1 and 2. A clever spoof of Gotye’s “Someone That I Used to Know”. It’s a popular video and song to spoof but this is still different enough to be worth it. Geek Native’s featured the work of Not Literally before but only […]

The music of Blood and Feathers
Here’s how Blood and Feathers: Rebellion was described to this Geek Native blogger; Driven out of hell and with nothing to lose, the Fallen wage open warfare against the angels on the streets. And they’re winning. As the balance tips towards the darkness, Alice – barely recovered from her own ordeal in hell and struggling […]

Green Ronin’s Mutants & Masterminds is a popular RPG and the perfect subject for some Superhero Week attention.

Superhero Week: Batman approves of your reality
