Author Mat Johnson took some time out of his insanely packed schedule to chat with Geek Girl Riot’s Sherin Nicole and Day Al-Mohamed about his upcoming work, the beauty in collaborating and adapting for changing audiences, as well as staying out of the limelight when creating.
Geek Girl Riot’s Sherin, Kat, and Meagan dig into every facet of the entertainment mogul to try and answer the ultimate question: why is Netflix so damn good?
By now you are either watching Netflix’s new breakout hit series Stranger Things, or you are being told by all of your friends that you NEED to watch it right now! So what’s all the fuss about?

Uh oh… My Chemical Romance has entered the “online discourse,” and long-time fans are clashing with “casual” fans. My Chemical Romance has just kicked off their Long Live The Black Parade tour, and some ticket holders took to social media to describe their surprise and perhaps upset with the band for their political themes. At the Seattle date, Gerard Way held an “election” with the crowd who “voted” for hooded “candidates” in the center of the stadium. In classic MCR theatrical fashion, these hooded figures were “executed” and taken out in body bags. “Thank you so very much for participating… Read more »

At least we freaking hope so! With the success of the Oscar-winning Bohemian Rhapsody and the Oscar-nominated A Complete Unknown, we can’t help but imagine what an MCR movie would look like: the eyeliner, the concept albums, the trauma, the triumph. Or perhaps, a post-apocalyptic afterlife centered around The Black Parade, with The Patient as the lead character and the band themselves driving the story forward through musical performances.… Read more »
