6.5 foot long Dragon Ball Shenron to keep you warm
Shenron appears when the Dragon Balls are used to make a wish. The huge dragon, of great power, fills the sky. Or, in this case, he might just take up the entire length of your sofa. The plushie is an offical from Bandai and makes use of sneaky internal joints so you can fold and […]
Callover Cover: Legenderry: Vampirella
I’ve no problem with Vampirella having more clothes on than normal. This version of the immortal heroine has gone all steampunk and David Avallone’s adventure is set in a neo-Victorian world of petticoats and airships. The cover artist is Joe Benitez. You can find the comic at Things From Another World or Comixology.
Is there undiscovered and intelligent life hidden in our oceans?
Most British people think there is intelligence life hidden in our oceans – although those who identify as geeks are less sure. 80% of people who responded to a survey from Geek Native, who didn’t identify as being a geek themselves, thought we could still find intelligent creatures in the sea. That compared to just over […]

Men more willing than women to dabble in Necromancy
Last year Geek Native had a copy of Finn Fancy Necromancy by Randy Henderson to give away so we ran a little competition. In the novel, the necromancer Finn Gramarayre returns to the mortal world after being exiled for a crime he didn’t do. There’s more than culture shock to deal with as dark forces […]
Short film: Ballerina
Ever found a large apartment on AirBnB and wondered why it was so cheap? Sometimes the danger is worse than inflated rental prices in the area. Ballerina, starring Megan Mann, is a short horror from Marc Thomas. It’s a familiar story with a music box that doesn’t like to be left alone. I think the […]
Destroy the Stay Puft marshmallow man in your own home
I need this. This clever idea for a candle comes with a twist. No, it doesn’t become the Avatar of Gozer the Gozerian but it does burn with the scent of marshmallows. Firebox, who have the exclusive on the ghostbuster monster, add the following two product features “cute sailor hat” and “maniacal smile”. Both true. […]
