Geek Apparel of the Week: Appetite for Adventure, True Love Never Dies, Star Walaga
 |
?? True fact: I will love pretty much any mash-up between a nerdy property and Guns n’ Roses’ Appetite for Destruction cover art. This Doctor Who tee is $10 at Shirt Punch, today only.
 |
?? I know there’s plenty of Portal shirts out there, but I just really liked the design on this one — almost as much as I liked the name. It’s $13 at OtherTees for the next three days.

?? I’ve included “Star Walaga” here not because it’s a great mash-up shirt — although it is and you should buy it — but because someone needs to make a custom MAME rom of this thing immediately. IMMEDIATELY. And then send it to me. Meanwhile, this shirt is $10 at Nowhere Bad for the next day and a half.
About The Author
Robert Bricken is one of the original co-founders of the site formerly known as Topless Robot, and its first editor-in-chief, serving from 2008-12. He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others. He is currently the managing editor of io9.com. Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
