"Geek Monthly" is indeed 'geeky', but in a snarky, entertaining way I found surprisingly endearing - as much as one can be endeared to a magazine, I mean."Fact|date=June 2007
"Geek Monthly" is so much fun, it may just cause you to rethink any anti-geek bias you may be clinging to from high school. It handles its content - which ranges from “Non-porn way to kill time on the internet” to a review of hardcore graphic novel "Lost Girls" to a side bar interview with William Shatner, lord and savior of the geeks himself - with style." ["Geek Monthly", Jennifer Johnson.
www.bookslut.com , March, 2007.]"And now, geeks have a new magazine to read. It’s called "Geek Monthly". Because it's for geeks – get it? Not for real, over-or-underweight, socially awkward, D&D-playing nerds who wait until 2 a.m. for the latest copy of Windows Vista geeks, but those cool, fashionable ones who wear tight lime-green sweaters, have $500 faux-thick glasses and masturbate to photos of Weezer in between shopping sprees at Hot Topic, whereupon they buy a shirt of Chuck Norris playing an old-school Atari. It's for that kind of geek. Think of it as their "Details"." ["Geek Monthly #2", Louis Fowler.
