So what is the current status of "The Boys", in my country they only released the first 6 episodes and commented at the end that ennis was looking for another publisher.

You'll be able to get all your answers in part 5 of the interview next week. Thanks for watching!

So. This Multiverse theory. It means that out there(which is in here at the same time)exists a reality in which Mr Ennis never wrote a single story. Not even half a page. I feel horribly sorry for those poor cunts that exist in that universe.

Ennis is among the best there are.

With a shaved head, Garth looks like comedian Jim Norton.

More news on the upcoming The Boys film.

Over at Bleeding Cool there's a link to an MTV interview with Simon Pegg in which the subject of him playing the part of Wee Hughie in the film comes up, both Garth Ennis & Darick Robertson had Pegg in mind when they created Hughie and film director Adam McKay REALLY wants Pegg for the part and can't imagine anyone else playing Hughie :-)

The trouble is that although Pegg has read the screenplay and loves it, he feels he's too old to play Hughie. :-(

isn't it funny how garth ennis hates christianity so much that he can't stop writing stuff about it?

@cha5 Russell Crowe? Maaaybe he could do it. I find it hard to take him seriously though. He's kind of the same in everything.

Henry Rollins? He's about two and a half foot tall and he can't act.

I think Tom Hardy could be good as Butcher. He's a very versatile actor (compare him in Inception and Bronson), and he can do shit-your-pants intimidating (Bronson again).

@cha5 I think if Henry Rollins could pull off the accent, then hell yes, but Russell Crowe would be great too.

[GabesGames]

He's the kind of writer that makes you cry for the next comic fix. His stuff is pure art and will leave you in stitches of laughter.

This man is ridiculously tall in real life. He's great :D
