Name: John Coughlan

Bio: 25 years old, from Scotland. Relative late-comer to the Comicsphere. Although like most Brits I read lots of kids comics when younger, I only got into the larger world around 2005. Massive DC fan, especially: Batman, The Flash, Doom Patrol, Jonah Hex, Superman, Green Arrow, Power Girl, Secret Six, and much more. My Marvel love extends to Daredevil, Thor, Fantastic Four and Captain America, but am always open to more. I also love The Lone Ranger from Dynamite, The Walking Dead from Image, and Irredeemable from Boom. Ahem. I hate to toot my own horn, but I write comic book reviews and articles for entertainment and culture website Street Savvy -- thestreetsavvy.com

Comic Book Casting: The THUNDERBOLTS Movie
May 14, 2012 10:14 am Carnahan - FUCK YES. I'd say Old Spice Guy for Cage, since he wants to do it so bad. Give him his own solo movie first, see how that goes. I also really did not like Roth in The Incredible Hulk, but I suppose you'd want a sense of continuity there. Although they did recast Banner... Everyone else: yeah, good.

May 14, 2012 8:56 am I paused the show, pulled out my Flex Mentallo hardcover, checked the back. Nice. Incidentally, the mood on the iFanboy MySpace page is set to "jubilant." http://www.myspace.com/ifanboy
