Unlike all the other cool “geek bloggers” out there, I don’t have a 30-day countdown to Halloween. Sorry folks š But I do have something cool, quirky and creepy for ya. (Click to enlarge) Do you recognize this guy? I’ll give you a hint. It’s where Shepard Fairey got the whole “OBEY” schtick. Still nothing? […]
Thoom. Thoom. THOOM… Quack! (Click to enlarge) Oh crap! They’re back! You guys remember that awesome Disney Transformer I featured last year? Well, check this out.
