Jack Campbell’s The Lost Fleet series packs serious geek cred. It’s been recommended to me again and again. Titan are now bringing the series to the UK, starting with the release of Dauntless, Fearless and Courageous, then publishing more every month until we reach Victorious and the planned sequel series Beyond the Frontier. The spin-off […]

Threepio swimsuit is the C3PO swimsuit
BlackMilk has done it again. The shop must be on so many geek’s holiday shopping list it should be shaping up for its best year ever. A while back the retailer launched its Artoo swimsuit. It’s not a R2D2 swimsuit, of course, that would by governed by somme harsh merchandising rules from Lucas. The Artoo […]
The 2010 Ennies nominations have been announced
The Ennies may well be the most significant of the RPG industry awards. Certainly, everyone who’s made it through to this round should be very happy with themselves and will hopefully see a rise in sales just because they’re a nominee. You’ll see some of the products marked with HM – these are honourable mentions […]
Topcow meets Disney: the sexy princess series
I love it when things naturally sweep through the geek-o-sphere. I’ve been catching up with my geek reading today. On my Think Geek RSS feed I noticed the Wampa rug and blogged about it. Then as I read through more blogs I noticed it was old news. It had already spread around the blogs. Same […]
Famous Last Words 12/15: Drow or not… she’s just a woman
There are a number of common traits in this collection of famous last words. Drow are dangerous. Dragons are dangerous. Dwarves have no sense of humour. Kobolds are never as easy to kill as you think. Orcs do hunt in packs. Stormtroopers can hit you from there. If you’re talking about Cthulhu then it’s already […]
The original Darth Vader
Popular guest blogger Paul caught my attention today with a crazy music video. It was directed by Pete “Darth Maul” Serafinowicz. Crazy stuff. Not what I expected from the sith. I wanted to raise the stakes. You’ll know that David Prowse played Darth Vader in the first Star Wars films and then that James Earl […]
An inteview with Seven Hundred – Steven Anderson
Steven Anderson is a Glasgow based graphic designer who shot to geek fame through his awesome treatment of Mr Men as super heroes and villains. The sample of Steven’s art on Geek Native has been one of the blogs most retweeted URLs in months and so I cheekily pestered Steven for an interview. Hurrah! He […]
Darth Vader Alarm Clock
It pays to wake up in style. A good start to the day will carry you through until bed time. What constitutes a good start to the day? What about a Star Wars morning? What about a “wake up or be throttled by the dark side of the Force” alarm? Excellent! Just what you needed. […]

Mondo Comico in the press and on the web
Kudos to Mondo Comico. The Nottingham gaming and comic shop made the news today with a feature in This Is Nottingham. Rather than endure the standard press poking fun at roleplaying and the Simpson’s fed ‘Comic Guy’ stereotype Mondo Comico walked away from the encounter smelling of roses. The hero of our story is David […]
