Cobb County is getting a ThinkGeek store of its own. George Bowman of Buford, an employee at the Mall of Georgia location (the state’s first), was excited for “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.”

Wanna-be Jedi, Whovians and those who love X-Men minutia can all rejoice because Cobb County is getting its first ThinkGeek store.

“Ghu'vam 'oHbe' qID.”

That means "this is not a joke" in Klingon. And it isn't one.

ThinkGeek will open a 2,200-square-foot store in Town Center at Cobb in early April, said Jennifer Walker, a spokeswoman for the Kennesaw mall.

Originally an online emporium for all things that got middle schoolers beaten up, the physical stores sell a smattering of its offerings from the web: collectibles, trading cards, games and more.

The business will be next to Bath & Body Works on the mall’s upper level in the Sears wing, Walker said.
