Geek Syndicate GS Issue 009 - Credits Cover Photograph: Doctor Macro Cover Design: Antony McGarry-Thickitt Designer: Antony McGarry-Thickitt Welcome to the March issue of the Geek Syndicate Magazine! Editors: Barry Nugent Antony McGarry-Thickitt Proof Reader: James Sims Contribuors: Antony McGarry-Thickitt Barry Nugent Casey Douglass Ian J. Simpson Jess Hawke Leo Johnson Matt Farr Phil Hobden Ronald “Silverfox” Singh I think Robin Hood is a little like The Doctor in that everyone has “their Robin”. In my case, “my Robin” would be Errol Flynn. The classic scene in The Adventures of Robin Hood where Flynn walks into Nottingham castle with a deer perched on his shoulders was the moment I fell in love with the character. Read the results of our investigation into Robin’s history on page 13, it may surprise you. On page 5 Matt dons helm and shield to bluff his way through the misty realm of Massively Multiplayer Online Games with the Bluffers Guide. We also meet a digital ninja in the form of 2000AD’s PR CoOrdinator Michael Molcher on page 30. 21 we discuss some of the factors that influenced the cancellation of these great shows. Before things get too bleak let us remember that we are only in March and we still have a lot of good stuff to look forward to. On the horizon we have Captain America:Winter Soldier, Season four of Game of Thrones, TitanFall, Guardians of the Galaxy, Bristol Comic Expo, Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes, London Super Comic Con and a whole lot more. With so many things in the offering it’s a great time to be a geek and I would not have it any other way. Over the past few years we have seen the rise and fall of some great cartoons.
