Noto
Name: Shawn McLoughlin
I'm 28. 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.

On Aug 17, 2009 6:25 PMI just picked up the Phonogram trade based solely all the phenomenal press it gets from this site and I'm really looking forward to reading it because it seems right up my alley. I also love Thor, so I'll gladly take some of this action.
