Are you looking for Game of Thrones baby clothes and onesies? No matter if you’re a Stark or a Lannister, or if you are rooting for Tyrion, Daenerys, Arya, Jon Snow, or any others to be on the Iron Throne, you will find the garb of your favorite house here. Perfect for the heir to your family’s throne. Valar Morghulis!
I really liked the thought of the Night Watch. It reminded me of the movie Escape from New York where accused criminals are sent to Manhattan for the rest of their lives. It’s very post apocalyptic and quite different than the Night’s Watch in Game of Thrones. I hope your child is never sent to the wall.
I’m not sure how much babies or toddlers know, but they certainly drink a lot of milk. Technically speaking, your little one probably knows all kinds of secrets about you. I mean you are with them virtually every moment of the day. Just imagine they are silently judging your every move.
If you’re like me you are tired of little girls being referred to as princesses. Not every female wants to be a poor defenseless Disney princess when they grow up. Some want to become rulers of continents, give birth to dragons, and kick some serious undead butt.
Does your baby sometimes seem a little impish? This romper is perfect for little ones with dangerous attitudes– so dangerous they may eventually get sent to the Wall if they don’t cool it!
We here at GeekBaby are pro babies, but less so on the whine. Your little one is like a little god though, there’s no denying that. Drinking milk 24/7 and making demands through throwing a fit. Yup, bow down and serve.
Did you have trouble deciding which Dothraki epitaph was best for your baby? Do you have twins and appreciate deals on clothing for twins? Do you just really like both of these? We do. Which is why we’re just tickled that they come in a package together, for the same price as one.
You know the feeling. You try to teach your baby to behave like a proper Stark, but once they reach the age of two, they just become real wildlings. Lucky for you, there are places that make the perfect clothing for such rambunctious babies. Make sure you select the right style to order a onesie.
I’m not trying to start an argument here, but I think it needs to be said that some people prefer the book over the HBO series. That’s who this romper is for, but generally we’re fans of encouraging your child to love books from birth.
Sometimes even the most hodorest of babies can hodor the hodor hodors! If your toddler is a baby of few-to-hodor words, or even if your baby isn’t quite hodor yet, this romper is sure to hodor them even beyond your wildest hodors!
This Winter Is Coming romper is kind of the epitome of all that we have seen. For your own little Arya, or even your pint-sized Bran, this onesie comes in blue, sweet pink, midnight black, or Greyjoy gray.
Our Star Wars baby clothes will turn you to the darkside.
We don’t normally feature clothing for mommies. After all, it is called, “Geek Baby,” not, “Geek Mommy.” But we found this set way too cute to pass up. It’s the perfect gift for a new Mother of Dragons or a Mother of Dragons-to-be.
In the game of onesies, you win or you get laughed at for not having a super cool romper. Look, babies these days have got to be fierce. So forget about any cartoon movie where kids learn to ride dragons. Your kid is going to ride like a true khal or khaleesi on Drogon and they should have a onesie to prove it.
Crayon on the walls? Crackers in the toilet? Wasn’t me! I can prove it– I demand trial by combat! If your favorite imp is always causing serious trouble and then giving you that look that says, ‘I swear I’m not guilty!’ this romper is probably going to be a must have.
Brace yourselves, the infant is coming. It might be cold near the great Wall, but this Game of Throne’s: King of the North romper is hot. So hot, that other parents might lose their head over the jealousy of your little one’s cuteness.
The ultimate compliment for nerdy moms everywhere, your child calls you a Khaleesi. Wow, how awesome would that be? Well, your little one probably can’t talk yet, but the good news is that you can speak for them. That’s where this cool My Mommy is a Khaleesi romper comes in.
The North never forgets and that mantra remains true through the whole series. Unfortunately, you become forgetful after having a baby. What’s even more unfortunate is that your child will get a little older and never forget. It’s an uphill battle.
We feature the onesie version above, but this bib comes with the most adorable little stitching of the Mother of Dragons herself, so we couldn’t possibly turn it away.
So you have finally mastered the cloth diaper. But can you consider yourself to truly be the Mother of Dragon(s)? If you have this gorgeous diaper, you definitely can. There are multiple styles of diapers to choose from so you can pick the one that will fit your dragon the best.
This adorable romper reminds me of being a child when I would imagine that my favorite toys competed for first place. Think of it as a more serious version of Toy Story. Notice that each toy in the design represents a different house.
Do you ever feel like just giving in and bending at the knee in front of your little one? We’ve all been there, and no it won’t change anything. They’ll keep demanding the same things at 3 am. They never seem satisfied, but aren’t they just the cutest?
We wrote a little about the wildings on a onesie featured above. However, we didn’t talk about Ygritte nor Jon’s admiration of her. That strong northern English accent wins over Jon’s heart much like your baby’s tears wins yours.
Do you like dragons? Of course you do! The Targaryens certainly had their problems, but they rode freaking dragons. How awesome is that? These dragons look all cute and cuddly. Not like the ones in Game of Thrones that eat people.
Your little one might be a little too young for some delicious ice cream, but you can still pick out which flavors you’ll have them try first. Trust me, they’ll be wanting ice cream every night soon enough. Which flavor will sit in the iron bowl?
Don’t underestimate a little kid and their uncanny ability for exponentially acquiring knowledge. Even babies have an almost superhuman ability when it comes to learning new things. Keep reading to them and providing an interactive environment, you’ll see soon enough.
Arya Stark is arguably one of the most popular characters in Game of Thrones, but there was another girl who forgot her name long before Arya. The Neverending Story, which is not a jab at George Martin’s Throne’s novels, is a children’s fantasy novel that you can read to your child in a few years.
All hail the true ice king of the north! While the royal families fight it out at King’s Landing the real ruler rides south. Dress your baby as the true hero in Game of Thrones, the Night King.

At Emerald City Comic Con, Black Nerd Problems talked to writer Magdalene Vissagio (Kim & Kim, Eternity Girl), and Corin Howell (IDWs Ghostbusters, X-Files) about their new book Calamity Kate from Dark Horse Comics. The story follows Kate Strand, a woman whose divorce sparked her to uproot her life and move to LA where she can follow her dream of becoming a monster killer. Calamity Kate’s got leather jackets, samurai swords, and giant decapitated scaly heads.
Black Nerd Problems: How would you describe Calamity Kate to a fan of comics that’s never read anything other than Marvel or DC before? Like someone who hasn’t ventured outside of mainstream superhero comics.
Magdalene Visaggio: It’s about a woman—who after a very nasty divorce—decides to burn her life to the ground and reinvent herself so she gets a bunch of tattoos, changes her style, hops into a 1979 Lincoln Continental with a Samurai sword driving across the country and cutting off the heads of goblins. She becomes the monster hunter she always wanted to be to sort of deal with the trauma of her divorce.
BNP: It kind of reminded me of a superhero book in the sense where it seems like monster hunters kind of take the place of what superheroes would be in this world.
MV: Yeah, to a degree. I was treating them more as celebrities. But with superheroes, there’s definitely a lot of crossover there too. And it’s definitely like tonally—it feels to me a lot like a Marvel book. It’s got that kind of mixture of humor and pathos that’s so characteristic of that company’s tradition. But yeah, I never really thought about it in those terms. You’re not the first person to bring that up, and I never thought of that. To me, the analogy was that they’re stars.
BNP: What creative sources outside of comics would you say were most influential for you while developing this book?
Corin Howell: H.P. Lovecraft.
MV: I’m not sure. I’m really not sure. I don’t always know what’s influencing me. I wasn’t consciously drawing from anything. But I love road stories. I love over the top bombastic action. There’s probably a lot of stuff that’s feeding into it. One unconscious influence that my editor noticed was John Cheever’s short story The Swimmer. There’s a good deal of some of the fantastical elements of that story. How time flows. And I’ve always loved that story.
BNP: Same question, but more specific to Kate. What’s her main source of inspiration?
MV: Kate’s based a lot on my own worst impulses. In the same way that Kim Q is in Kim & Kim, they’re just different shitty parts of me. I got divorced last year and that was a really, really rough experience. And I wanted nothing more than to burn my life to the ground. I looked at my bank account, saw I had $7,000, and was like, I could go to LA. And I didn’t do that. But all of the different forms of what I’ve been calling creative self-destruction— some of which I did and some I didn’t do. Stuff that I was contemplating at the time. Like getting a bunch of tattoos. Getting piercings. Changing how I dress. Changing my hair. Moving across the country. Just completely rebooting my whole life. I just did that through her.
BNP: And for Corin, in terms of developing her look, was that all based on descriptions from Mags, or did you have any creative input?
CH: Mags had an overall description of that punk kind of rebellious look, But I had the idea of like the Peter Parker scenario. Peter Parker is like the nerd, he’s kind of plain. He’s not really loved. He’s just kind of there. But as soon as he’s bitten by a spider, he gets abs and now he’s a superhero. So it’s kind of like the idea of taking a character that was kind of like plain looking before the divorce, like straight hair, wore plain clothes, very plain colors, not really the most interesting person in the room. But as soon as this horrible thing happens in her life, she does a 180 and she just lets her hair go wavy and lets her hair down and gets the leather jacket and the tattoos, the lace, the piercings. And just kind of like allowing that rebellious nature to overtake her personality.
MV: And those are all impulses that she had been like suppressing as she was trying to sort of be the person that her partner wanted her to be. That’s something that’s gonna play out through flashbacks over the course of the book. Sort of the way their relationship was toxic and the way they hurt each other. So, everything she’s doing is a reaction to that. The no longer feeling hemmed in, but also the impulse to self-discover. She’s exploring parts of herself she never let herself get into.
BNP: So how does the relationship work between the two of you? Like from script to page. Are you super detailed in the scripts, or do you play it fast and loose?
MV: Do you think I’m too detailed in my scripts?
CH: Nah (Laughs)
MV: I try to be very Spartan in my scripting. She’s got such an incredible command of the page. And especially her action sequences. In more recent scripts, I’m just like here’s an action page with roughly some of the beats. Here’s where it needs to be by the end. But I trust you to do the choreography for that. Because otherwise, I feel like I get really repetitive.
CH: It’s just like very open. That’s what I like about it. This happens and this happens and this happens. And it’s like okay, I’ll just do this then.
MV: The way I see it is like the artist is the co-storyteller, and, I feel like unless I need something really specific for this story to advance the way I want it to with the themes, in which case, I’ll communicate. But otherwise, it’s just—I try to trust whoever I’m working with to handle that. To take command of the visual art of it. That’s their expertise. My expertise is—as much as anyone could claim it—like pacing and plot development and dialogue. I try to think of things that would be sort of interesting to draw. And things that would be interesting to see.
CH: I sometimes have a problem with being repetitive. So, the way I’ll counteract that is like making it in silhouette form. So, it’s like you’re not seeing every detail but you can tell what’s going on so that way it’s kind of alluding to letting the reader figure out what other borders are they seeing on the page.
MV: One of the things I really wanted to accomplish in the action that Corin nailed is that I wanted the action to feel very free-flowing. Like I kind of realized that’s what I wanted when I started the scripting process in the early pages. Like she slams on the breaks, the car spins out, she climbs on top, and leaps right at the reader. I was like well that’s the vibe of every fight in this book. It’s gotta be like that. It’s gotta have that movement. So, I can’t remember the name—I don’t do a ton of anime. That’s never really been my passion. But there’s this one director who I know does a lot of things with people running and leaping from rooftop to rooftop as they fight.
CH: I mean I was just kind of going back to Fooly Cooly. Like I remember maybe the fourth episode? Where Haruko is dressed up as a Playboy bunny and she’s fighting this giant monster that looks like an old ‘20s gangster, and he’s got like this giant shotgun and she’s never standing still. She’s running up the shotgun with her guitar, flipping, rolling, bouncing and then literally taking the blow with the guitar.
MV: That’s interesting. Fooly Cooly is also like a huge influence on myself which is funny because I don’t think I’ve seen it since 2006.
CH: Oh, I own it. I watch it like once every few years.
MV: I think it’s funny because considering how I was handling my side of choreography, I was kind of going for that same kind of thing. So, I guess that was one of my influences. Fooly Cooly seeps into like everything I do as a good show with a badass soundtrack. Still own that soundtrack.
BNP: Who would you like to play the role of Kate if the book ever got adapted?
MV: I’m so bad at that. I don’t cast. Other people are like “Oh, they should play them.” And I’m like yeah, sure. Whatever they say just becomes my choice.
CH: That’s a tough one, actually. Maybe Emma Stone. She could pull off the kind of facial expressions that I would want Kate to have. She’s expressive enough.
BNP: So one of the things that I noticed—I had to go back and double check—but there were no men in the issue. And I thought that was really interesting and dope. I feel like that had to be on purpose, right?
MV: Oh, god. That never even occurred to me!
CH: I think there’s like one in the background somewhere.
BNP: Maybe one. Definitely nobody with dialogue, though.
MV: That never even occurred to me! Holy crap. Totally accidental. I don’t know if it was necessarily an unconscious influence, but I mean I populate my comics with empowered women characters. That’s absolutely a priority for me. But I guess I’m neglecting the boys (Laughs). I think I wrote the reporter as a guy, and you drew a woman.
CH: It just said reporterm and I just defaulted to like a cute chick. So, that’s what I went with.
MV: I’m into it. She was cute.
BNP: So, what’s been the most fulfilling process of developing this story?
MV: Oh, publication always. Always publication. Because then it’s out there and it’s in the world. And people can react to it and they’ll have their response, and their response is their internalization of the story and what it meant for them. That’s when a story comes to life. When other people get to bring their experience to it.
CH: Coming from a person who’s worked in IPs and licensing for a while, finally being able to spread my wings and do what I’ve always wanted to do—draw horror and monsters and just everything that I draw on my off time is what I’ve always wanted. And I mean I also have a pitch in the works that is gonna involve this and actually does have two main male characters (laughs). But like being able to draw this and show it to the world that, “hey I actually love doing this a lot.” It’s just like Ta-da! This is what I love doing, please like it!
BNP: What would be the one thing you’d want fans to take away from experiencing this story?
MV: I try not to worry about that. For me, I just try to work on portraying the emotion, honestly. And giving people something to react to. I can’t control what their reaction is. This goal was for me always. I’m having these emotions. I’m having these impulses. And I want to explore those in a way that feels healthy. And if other people take something from that, that’s good, that’s up to them. I did the work that I needed to do. And any emotional work or analytical work or any other type of internalization that a reader does, that’s gonna be their experience with that.
CH: Being able to inspire some young artist out there is kinda what I want. That’s always been my thing. I grew up in a very religious community—not really religious, just really uptight. And being an artist meant you were always gonna be poor. You should consider being a nurse or whatever. And so I would always say F You and keep drawing anyways. But I wanted that kind of inspiration like you know, it’s okay to pursue your love of art and kind of inspire other young artists out there as well.

If you spent any time at all on social media yesterday, you’ll know that it was Diana Ross’ 75th birthday. The musical icon’s impact was obvious as celebrities and media outlets alike took time to wish the singer a happy birthday, acknowledging her for revolutionizing the music industry, fashion, and—well—pretty much everything. Leading the online celebration was Ross’ daughter and our favorite girlfriend, Tracee Ellis Ross, who popped up on the gram donning a crisp, white “I’m Gonna Win” t-shirt in honor of her momma. We all know Tracee is no stranger to the casual slay, but this motto comes with a message. Tracee’s t-shirt is part of a newly-launched collection from the Phenomenal Woman Action Campaign, a marketing platform geared toward supporting women’s causes. Proceeds from the “I’m Gonna Win” T-Shirt ($35.00, phenomenalwoman.us) benefit Higher Heights for America, a national organization devoted to the education, representation and advancement of Black women within the political sphere.
The “I’m Gonna Win” campaign features a variety of mini-Dianas on a tennis court in homage to the original image of the singer. The message is simple and strong: women will win. Win, we shall. The caption of one image reads, “in a male-dominated world, women can succeed by being their authentic selves,” a truth that speaks directly to Diana Ross’ record-breaking success both within Motown and in entertainment at large. The imagery of the tennis courts and rackets also calls to mind the phenom that is Serena Williams, another pioneer for Black women in a traditionally male-centric space. It goes to show that in any industry, women—Black women—disturb the status quo and elevate the game for everyone involved.
Tracee wasn’t the only one to get in on the fun. Tons of Black female celebrities hit the gram in their “winning” t-shirts. Shonda Rhimes, Teyana Taylor, Lena Waithe, Yvonne Orji, Mya, Eve, Debbie Allen, Robin Roberts, Angela Bassett and MC Lyte were just a few of the many women who threw their support behind the campaign. The Phenomenal Woman Action collection also features an “I’m Gonna Win” baby onesie ($30.00, phenomenalwoman.us) and an “I’m Gonna Win” baseball hat ($35.00, phenomenalwoman.us), available for pre-order.
If cute clothes and Mama Diana aren’t enough to pique your interest, keep in mind that proceeds from your purchase will help Higher Heights for America continue to develop national infrastructure to increase the presence of Black women in positions of political power. With women like Stacey Abrams rumored for the next Democratic presidential ticket, organizations like Higher Heights are critical in helping to change the narrative on what political power looks like. A worthy cause, if ever I’ve seen one—plus, the tee looks great with jeans. Win-win!
