Den of Geek operates as a digital platform based in both the UK and the US, specializing in entertainment and popular culture, and is supplemented by a magazine published twice yearly.

History

Established in London in 2007 by entrepreneur Simon Brew, Den of Geek entered the North American market in 2012 by forming a licensing partnership with DoG Tech LLC, which set up an office in New York City. In 2017, Dennis Publishing formed a joint venture with DoG Tech LLC to support the brand's international growth. By 2019, Dennis Publishing sold its shares in Den of Geek World Limited back to DoG Tech LLC, thereby consolidating full ownership.

Website

The Den of Geek website provides a range of content including news on entertainment, critical reviews, interviews, and feature articles. Mike Cecchini serves as editor-in-chief for the US edition, while Rosie Fletcher oversees the UK site as editor. Additionally, the company produces video materials that complement its online content.

Publishing

The print magazine edition of Den of Geek debuted at New York Comic Con in October 2015 and is issued twice annually, with copies distributed at both San Diego Comic-Con and New York Comic Con events. Chris Longo acts as the editor for the print publication. The magazine extended its reach to the UK audience starting in 2017.

Beyond periodicals, Den of Geek has expanded into book publishing with titles such as Movie Geek: The Den of Geek Guide to the Movieverse (2017) and TV Geek: The Den of Geek Guide for the Netflix Generation (2019), further diversifying its print media offerings.
