Nicholas Hyde is a wizard when it comes to creating geeky weapon posters. The talented artist and proprietor of the Etsy store Harshness has created a series of movie posters inspired solely by fictional weapons. These weapons span the vast universe of geekdom and are sourced from video games, comic books and movies.
Eagle-eyed geeks may be able to pick out most of the weapons featured in this series, but there are a few which may cause some trouble. For example, unless you watch Stargate or have seen Krull, you won't be able to make a clean sweep of all these weapons. Each print sells for a mere $19, which is coincidentally the same price as all of Hyde's other prints.
