The Star Trek Encyclopedia, Revised and Expanded Edition: A Reference Guide to the Future

The Star Trek Encyclopedia Revised and Expanded Edition
I’m one of these guys who can get really lost in books like this. I just love every little detail that you can learn about the world of Star Trek. As the name implies The Star Trek Encyclopedia, Revised and Expanded Edition: A Reference Guide to the Future is an updated edition with even more “stuff”.

Michael and Denise Okuda literally cover every moment from the four Star Trek series and eight films. Every planet ever visited, every food ingested, every outfit worn, and every featured character. You would be hard pressed to find much that is missing from these books. As far as I’m concerned this is a must for your Sci-Fi library.

The Batmobile – An Evolution In Film


Well Batman v Superman recently hit theaters, so Select Car Leasing thought it would be a good time to take a look back at the Batmobile’s evolution in film. This is one of the most iconic cars ever created and over the years it has changed many times and has been driven by many actors. However, no matter how much it changes, you always know it belongs to Batman with just a glance. It is as much of a character as Batman himself. Check out all of it’s incarnations in this cool video with accompanying infographic.

Cool Star Wars Watercolor Prints

Cool Star Wars Watercolor Prints
You can find these cool prints at Etsy seller goldenplanetprints shop along with many other awesome pieces of art. These Star Wars watercolor prints look pretty amazing. I love how they all drip and fade to nothing. I’m not sure why that fascinates me so much, but I love seeing these characters in this way. It’s just very impactful and eye catching. Almost like they are being created or are dissolving before your eyes.

Cosmic Comics: A Geek Odyssey

Cosmic Comics A Geek Odyssey
This series titled “Cosmic Comics” takes some of our favorite Marvel characters and puts them against the backdrop of the cosmos. These already powerful superheroes look even more like Gods when floating through space. Several of them look as if they are in a reflective state of mind, as if contemplating the mere mortals of far off Earth.

This art is simple, yet powerful. It’s like 2001: A Space Odyssey and Marvel got together for a new series.

Alien Facehugger Hairclip
In space no one can hear you scream… Or in this case squee because you are so excited to have a facehugger in your hair. This little Alien Facehugger Hairclip is pretty cute. It is the perfect accessory for fangirls who love the Alien movies. It measures just over 4″ long and promises not to attack you.

You guys can wear it too because the seller can make these into buttonholes as well. Nothing compliments a suit or Tux quite like a facehugger crawling up your breast. You will be the talk of the event.

Famous Oldies: Old Superheroes By Alex Solis

Famous Oldies Old Superheroes By Alex Solis
All of our superheroes are either young or in their prime, but we rarely ever see old superheroes. They are perpetually young and strong. Well, not in this amazing art series from Chicago-based artist and illustrator Alex Solis. Here we see familiar heroes as senior citizens. Still super, just… Super old.

The series is titled Famous Oldies and that is just what they are, shown here wrinkles and all, still doing their thing. I’m just glad to see that they have not given up after all of these years.

This Star Wars Anti-Stress Coloring Book should please young and old fans alike, but it is marketed as an anti-stress activity here. I can certainly see how it would be relaxing to color these images in or even destroy Jar-Jar’s face with my angry crayon strokes.

H.R. Giger’s Japanese Ads For Pioneer

H.R. Giger's Japanese Ads For Pioneer
Some of you might remember this advertising campaign from 1985 when Japanese electronics company Pioneer hired H.R. Giger for an advertising campaign to promote the company’s new Zone system. They even made a television commercial that features one of Giger’s creatures. There were also two print advertisements.

I don’t know about you, but advertisements that feature Giger’s work certainly get my attention. This will either make you buy a Pioneer product or make you feel terrified. Maybe both.
