Name: Shawn McLoughlin

Bio: I'm 31. I was an avid comic collector in the late 80s through the end of the 90s, but an unknown catalyst made me cease purchasing comics around the early 2000s, and even that was following a downscale. I believe I was only buying Danger Girl and Dawn at that point. A second mysterious catalyst made me start up again in 2008. Now, like most things I involve myself in, it has become an obsession. Not one that I would stop drinking or going out for, but definitely one to take time away from my other two interests; writing and film. Other than that, there isn't too much terribly interesting about me. I'm an accountant, which means I need to drink a lot, and I tend to be lenient in my appreciation towards things, enjoying the finer things for being fine and being humbled by things not quite as astonishing. I write film reviews for several websites the most active of which is www.dvdinmypants.com. Swing by and have a smoke and some lemonade.I have an unnatural obsession with Milla Jovovich and Elektra (the character, not the film)Oh, and I like cats. NOTO FUN FACT: The only cheese that I particularly care for is cheddar. BONUS FUN FACT: I was the lucky winner of Tim Seely's original art to the cover of Boom Studio's upcoming Jennifer's Body GN. The money went to Josh Medors' to help him fight the good fight against his cancer, so I got an awesome item for the ultimate in good causes. One of the best purchasing decisions I ever made. <a href="http://img294.imageshack.us/i/meganfoxjennifersbodyco.jpg/" title="ImageShack - Image And Video Hosting"></a>

April 3, 2013 12:41 am I own every appearance of ROM, and I own the toy. He's my favorite Marvel character of all time. This isn't being hip, this is fact. I want nothing more than to see him return. NOTHING. What comic was that picture pulled from with him on the billboard?
January 22, 2013 9:32 am I disagree, which I'm well aware is unpopular, but I find the entirety of the second season magnificent. It's what really sold me as a fan. I love the cliffhanger and the books released while the series was running as well. I would love Lynch and Snow to revisit it.
January 22, 2013 12:29 am Too many comics to list... BQ: Same as this article's header. I would kill to get Twin Peaks back on the air.
December 12, 2012 12:54 am There's only one Batman, and his name is Mark Wahlberg.
October 4, 2012 11:28 pm Less than 15 dicks this month. $5 be mine!
September 5, 2012 9:55 am Conduit was a cool villain, but they certainly forgot him after Zero Month pretty quickly.
September 5, 2012 12:35 am My retailer and I have had a running bet on how many dicks will appear in each issue. With an Over/Under of 15 dongs. Using the Price is Right style rules, if there is under 14, I win, if there is over 15, he wins. SPOILER .... I've lost two months in a row now.
August 31, 2012 9:36 am I meant "collar"
August 31, 2012 9:36 am I really dig how Peter's color echoes his costume in Samnee's Avenging Spider-Man cover.
August 25, 2012 2:54 pm It's kind of an apples/oranges comparison. Byrne owned Superman at that point and had control over his entire direction and characterization. Johns writes Superman in Justice League and is kind of restricted by Morrison's Superman in Action and whomever is writing Superman this month in the solo title. I do believe that Superman could do with a singular vision directing him though. That said, I will take any page of New52 Superman over anything that came a year prior to the relaunch.
