Need to shine some geek light into your room? Try these Sci-Fi and Superhero light boxes from Etsy seller BurntPixels. These stylish light boxes will geek up any room and add some style to your life.
You can choose from all kinds of neat designs like Doctor Who, Batman, Green Lantern, Star Wars, Iron Man and many more. Each for around $20. They look just as good unlit as they do lit up. I especially like the Doctor Who versions.
This female Spawn cosplay looks like it was practically ripped from the pages of Spawn itself. Cosplayer Cat Huntress did an amazing job. These images and Cat herself are totally epic. I just love the lighting and the colors. Of course that costume is pretty incredible too. She has basically channeled Spawn so completely that I can’t see anyone doing it better.
The photographer is Altovenue.
“Sci-fi, horror and fantasy and comics have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve always been a bit of a tomboy, found myself drawn more towards male characters and taking on male identities. Todd MacFarlane is one of my greatest artistic inspirations, I’ve been obsessed with Spawn since I was 13 and grew up watching the cartoon. What I love so much about Spawn’s character is that although his motivations are entirely self serving, you see moments of humanity shine through in his actions. We tried going for more of a cartoony feeling in the spirit of the show, the costume isn’t 100% exactly like the original Spawn costume because I wanted to do something a little different (and to be honest I was on a time constraint). And I had these amazing spiked bracers I absolutely love and take every opportunity possible to use on set!”

Prepare yourself for some of the best and most beautiful Doctor Who art that you have seen in ages. This Dalek comic strip was published in the mid-1960s in Century 21 magazine. Beautiful isn’t it? Well you can see it all on Flickr. See you in a few hours!
You can find the complete The Dalek Chronicles comic on walt74’s Flickr page. Apparently they are scans from a recent magazine that collected the entire run. I just love it. This colorful artwork has flying saucers, futuristic cities, space scenes and more pulpy goodness. I wish more people did art in this style today.

Etsy seller muckychris is truly an enlightened soul. I know this because he sells all kinds of cool Geeky Zen Buddha Statues. Check out a sampling below. They are sure to help you reach your zen place and might even bring you some luck sitting on your desk. You can get Yoda, Boba Fett, Cylons, Batman, Groot and many more.
These are fun geeky decorations and they are only $7.99. Plus every order comes with a free Millenium Falcon keychain. Shut up and take my money! These figures are fun and several would look great together.
If the ancient Egyptians worshiped Comic Book characters and Sc-Fi icons the way we do, this is exactly what their tombs would look like. Illustrator Josh Ln created this series of geeky hieroglyph style art and very appropriately calls it “Hero-glyphics”.
Best of all, you don’t need to be an Indiana Jones type to decipher them. I mean it’s pretty obvious that Han shot first and that Kirk battled the Gorn. If you like what you see, you can even buy prints from his Society6 store.
You don’t see too many quality Star Trek items for the kitchen, but Etsy seller BlueFireEngraving offers a really cool cutting board and some coaster sets. The coaster sets feature images of the history of the USS Enterprise. They are made of bamboo and you get 6 coasters.
The cutting board also shows the history of our favorite starship. Just don’t get too absorbed in the various Enterprise ships while you are chopping vegetables. You don’t want to cut yourself.
If you are a fan of the Star Wars prequels, check out these fascinating and not-so-often-seen behind the scenes photos. Even if you hate the prequels, you can’t help but respect all of the hard work that went on behind the scenes of this final installment.
Yes it had a ton of CGI, but this movie also had some massive sets and a ton of prop work and models as can be seen in some of the images below.
See the full gallery here, along with some amazing concept art.
This is how I imagine female Mandalorians spending their time on vacation, soaking up the sun and laying on the beach wearing a bikini and a helmet. Not that I’ve given it a ton of thought, mind you, but I’m only human. And a geek.
Anyway, Sandra Memma looks amazing in this Boba Fett bikini Star Wars photoshoot. I really like all of the little details like the Mandalorian tattoo the Wookie braids. The photographer was Sergio Ortega.
Look at the images below. Do these model of Sci-Fi ships look like paper to you? No way. They look like professional replicas. However, every single one of them is a papercraft creation. They were made by Japanese craftsman uhu02. I am just blown away by the level of detail and the fact that they don’t even look like paper.
He has created an X-Wing, a TIE Interceptor, Viper Mk2, 2001’s Orion and many more! This man is a true artist with paper.
Well, it’s 2015 so let’s see what Back To The Future 2 got right about the once future year that we are living in. Luckily for us, the folks at Stay Sourced have created this awesome infographic so that we can see how well the movie predicted the world as it is today.
I know one thing. We still don’t have any time traveling cars and the flux capacitor hasn’t been invented yet. Wait. Maybe that means the timeline has been changed! And Doc Brown never hit his head on the toilet! Great Scott!
