I'm a manga reader. I know how important casting is to live action adaptations. I was curious about Hellblazer, so I looked at a few scanalations of it online. After reading about three panels, my reaction to Keanu Reeves was *WTF*?
He seems completely inappropriate for the role of John Constantine. Anyone else would have been appropriate for the role. For some reason James Marsters from BtVS comes to mind. I'm not sure why. Teh crazy dark hell thing maybe?
Anyway, the comic looks fantastic! I've been thinking of branching into American comics, but I'm so stuck in the Japanese manga style. I was thinking of starting with Gaiman - His stuff looks cleaner and more stylistic than most. Am I correct?
