In honor of National Cake Decorating Day, we scoured the web to find five masterfully decorated geeky cakes, expertly crafted into iconic rides from comics and sci-fi.

We caught up with Browncoat artist Ben Mund to talk about the creation of our Firefly Playing Cards, his trademark art style and his approach to the deck's design. Stick around for a bonus downloadable goodie at the end!

Before you hit the theaters to see the saga of astronaut Mark Watney (Matt Damon) and his tale of survival against incredible odds, prime your viewing experience with these 5 fast facts about The Martian.

(Warning: minor spoilers ahead!)

There's nothing better than getting to geek out with your own kind. That's why we're starting the Q Crew blog: we want you to join in on the conversation. So please, make yourselves comfortable and join the fun as we revel in all things geeky, nerdy and all-around awesome.

Welcome to the Q Crew.
