This time it’s personal: A review of Late Fees – Samurai Slasher
Samurai Slasher is a comic by Mike Garley based on an imaginary 80 horrors film. You know the genre, though, college students turn up at the lake for some skinny dipping and smoking weed only to encounter an immortal samurai determined to slaughter them all. Late Fees is very different. This comic, limited to a […]
Whimsically winning: A review of The Night is Short, Walk on Girl
Masaaki Yuasa’s animation The Night is Short, Walk on Girl is not a visually beautiful anime in the traditional sense. This adaptation of the hugely popular Yoru wa Mijikashi Aruke yo Otome by Tomihiko Morimi is sometimes told with some very simple graphics. Nevertheless, once you get over your initial shock at the style and […]
Stranger Things dress
How is this for a Halloween costume? This picture from Cosplay America of the cosplayer Kittie Cosplay. The dress is clever because it takes two memorable features of Stranger Things, rather than any of the (human) characters, and blends them together. The result is immediately identifiable. Cosplay America has the nice story of Kittie bumping […]
Remixed: A review of Eureka Seven – Hi-Evolution 1
The Eureka Seven movie Hi-Evolution cuts up time and retells some of the show while adding on a few new bits. Most significantly it visits the world shaping event that was the disaster known as “The Summer of Love” (there’s nothing lovely about it). This means there are at least two camps of possible viewers […]

This Supreme Leader Snoke mask is available from Costume Supercenter. What’s going on here? Each Halloween Geek Native […]

Popular fancy dress and Halloween costume retailer Costume Supercenter has all the data and they’ve put it together in one towering infographic. They’ve also made predictions for 2017. Would […]
12 Masks of Halloween: #1 Cyclops Skull
Geek Native counts the days down to Halloween using masks. I suppose you could describe the tradition as a weird advent calendar. There’s been an odd selection of masks in the past – from the expensive and luxury to the cheap and cheerful. To take a peek at what’s gone before then either search for […]
Evolution Art’s Destiny Exo art
There used to be art inspired by Destiny on Geek Native’s store. It’s not there any more because, despite being chibi in style, Activision thought it was too close to the actual game. Shame. It’s with some caution then that I point out Evolution Art’s excellent collection of framed prints on Society6. This War Isn’t […]
CATaclysm: Surprise Gen Con hit appears on Kickstarter
CATaclysm: Surprise Gen Con hit appears on Kickstarter Back in Gen Con 49, that’s two years ago, CATaclysm debuted as a oneshot game. The catch? Instant hit. Now the team behind it have formed up as Akinji Entertainment and are asking for CA$ 18,000 on Kickstarter to fund a quality publication. At the time of […]
