I know most of you (half of you? Many of you?) are even more excited now about the Deadpool movie after the first red band trailer was released this week. In honor of our favorite mercenary with a mouth, this week’s Fanart Glee is all about Deadpool. I think we can all agree that he is possibly one of the most beloved comic book character. You can’t go to a comic convention without spotting a herd of Deadpool cosplayers… and if you don’t like him, you more than likely do not have a sense of humor. Just saying.

Seriously, guys. Why won’t you just let him love you?

Humans keep proving to suck at being humans which is why robots will destroy us all… At least Gambitatum IS still happening. We’re happy. Fanfic Theatre: Star Wars.

If you’ve been on youtube or tumblr in the last two years, then you have probably seen or heard of F.E.M.M.

The acronym stands for Far East Mention Mannequins; it is the official name of plastic dolls that were brought to life by a mysterious organization called FEMM’s Agency Syndicate.  Only mannequins that pass certain criteria can become FEMM and the Agency is constantly on the lookout across the world for plastic diamonds in the rough.

Tune in Tokyo and GAMeBoi have teamed up together to bring FEMM to the West Hollywood nightlife, performing for the first time in the US on August 7, 2015.

Horrible news befall the Lady Geeks as dark news of Channing Tatum possibly “exiting” the Gambit movie arises from the Inter of Webs. Only drooling over– I mean, admiring Xena as a strong, female character of the 90s saved them from complete despair.

For the second year in a row, Her Universe put on their nerd-inspired fashion show that not only showcases the newest pieces from the Her Universe clothing line, but also gives aspiring designers a chance to show off their geek couture design to compete for a chance to design a Her Universe line for Hot Topic. Last year, Amy Beth Christenson and Andrew MacLaine won, and have recently collaborated with Her Universe designers to make the vintage-inspired Avengers line.

For us, SDCC is always synonymous with the best nerd parties of the year, but my god. AT WHAT PRICE, MY SOUL?

At long last, it’s time for the Party Tiger to lay down her furry mantle and write about the best parties at SDCC. They were good, they were great, they were full of awesome music, and nerdy pride. Thanks to all the amazing friends who stuck with us along the way, and the new ones we made!

(Apologies for the rough audio in the beginning… hang in there for the party vids after it!)

In this episode, the Lady Geeks take offense that the Slave Leia action figure doesn’t have doll hair. They have revelations about Barbie’s life, and Gizzy B shares her sordid and passionate history with the Joker character.

Welcome to another edition of Awesome Fanfic Monday!

I love it when someone takes an iconic scene and puts a twist on it. These scenes are so engrained in our memories and a huge part of our pop culture lexicon that, at least for me, it’s always fun to see them a teased a bit. This week I picked a story that is a twist on one of the most famous cinematic scenes ever; when Darth Vader declares that he IS the father (without being pressured by Maury, what a guy).

This week’s story is Help Wanted by MegumiFuu of Fanfiction.net.
