Just in case if we’re wondering, ThinkGeek has flashed first set of 8 cards of the 56 collectible Geek Trading Cards all of them illustrated by famed artist Len Peralta.
It seems, Len Peralta has been interviewing one geek hero a week for last 52 weeks and has also been posting podcasts of the discussions online that he used for designing the front and back of the trading cards.
Joins him are the comedic music duo Paul and Storm to write the descriptions in their own wacky geeky way!
All these geeks are leaders in their respective industries: Art, Movies, Music, Computers, Science.
The first set comes with the following geeks personified by Len Peralta:
- Jonathan Coulton
- Fred Seibert
- Veronica Belmont

Clearly, the fun of geekdom has just begun with the first set, wait for the rest of the 48 cards to get flashed in the weeks to come!
