Other than CM Punk and Daniel Bryan, what other celebrities are "one of us"?
I don't watch WWE, but isn't Goldust's cousin a fan of comics?
>>77966429
Kofi Kingston. I forget where, but Punk was talking about how Kofi would read the comics Punk would have while in the tour bus. Also Kofi has worn comic book themed attire.
>>77966493
His brother made a Mr Sinister cape part of his gear. That's a pretty big tip off I'd say.
ACH
Eden Stiles
Cody Rhodes
Kofi Kingston
Xavier Woods
Kenny Omega
Minoru Suzuki
Bayley
Sasha Banks
Big E
Asuka
Simon Gotch
Rusev
Tyler Breeze
And that's just off the top of my head. It's not the 80's anymore. Wrestlers are millennials now. Most of them love nerd stuff. I mean, they chose to become wrestlers, an inherently nerdy thing.
>>77966688
ACH is fucking based btw
Kofi wore Riddler themed gear a few years back.
Ryan Reynolds, obviously
Scott Aukerman and Jason Mantzoukas were also making fun of the Secret Wars delays on a recent Comedy Bang Bang, and I remember some type of tangent with Paul F Tompkins about Inhumans in a different episode
>>77967083
Kofi's done Riddler, Sinestro, Bane, etc. I think he did Red Lantern gear too.
>>77966677
Stardust has posted on /v/ before, apparently
Vin Diesel is a big nerd.
>>77967460
His wife is black, I wonder if they bullied him because of it
>>77967551
Probably not, Eden is fucking whopper
Go to TVTropes and read their list.

Seth Meyers is apparently a big Kevin Maguire fan, big enough that Kevin drew Seth as Blue Beetle.
>>77967685
Kofi is so based.
>>77966688
What about Finn Balor? Dude has wrestled painted up as such characters as Venom, Anti-Venom, the Joker, Carnage, Punisher skull inspired design, Spawn, etc.
>>77967685
>sword collection
Okay, that's just too fucking nerdy
>>77967350
>Scott Aukerman
Like anyone gives a shit about that unfunny fuck
>>77967350
Paul F. is a total nerd. He doesn't wear it on his sleeve like Brian Posehn or Patton Oswalt but he'll slip in comic references here and there and just expect the crowd to follow along.
>>77967872
He's said before that he's not much of a comic book fan, he just appreciates it and thinks the stuff looks cool.
His passtime is playing with Legos though.
All this nerdiness on the roster makes me realize they probably all get bullied by Dean. Seth, and Roman. If anyone fits that stereotype, it's them.
>>77968193
Pfffff, if anyone is getting bullied is Seth Rollins, I mean the guy is a massiveHarry Potterfanboy. You can't get nerdier than that
>>77968193
Dean doesn't give a shit, he just wants to wrestle and fuck Renee Young.
>>77968193
Seth is a nerd himself, plus how can he bully someone when he went through a Tyler Durden phase.
Plus the dude seems cool too.

Are you talking about TV Aukerman or podcast Aukerman? The show is a completely different beast and Reggie was the best part of it, though to be fair I haven't seen the Kid Cudi episodes yet. The actual podcast itself is great as long as there's a good guest on.
>>77968015
I agree. I forgot which CBB episode this was, but in one their tangents they were talking about how they actually got yelled at by Bob Odenkirk because they were in the writers room for Mr. Show and fucked off early to go to a comic store. Also Patton is definitely insufferable when he starts to sperg out.
>>77968809
Doesn't matter. Aukerman is an unfunny man who has to be carried no matter the format
>>77969044
Well, grats on the opinion I guess
>>77968013
I give a shit about Scott Aukerman and I think he's funny.
I also think you're an idiot.

SHUT UP OLLI IS THE BEST NERD
>>77967685
>Skullman mask
Holy shit he's the real deal.
>>77968625
I mean, his nickname was the Man of Steel.
He's a big Superman fan.

Why else would he star in a Steel movie?

One of the more obvious ones, but Gerard Way of My Chemical Romance.
He wrote a Spider-Verse issue filled to the brim with anime references, had a comic written as a companion piece to one of his albums, and is more or less Grant Morrison's apprentice.
>>77968193
The plural of Lego is Lego.
One of the more obvious ones along with the whole of the Wu-Tang Clan, Redman and Kanye West
>>77969441
>I was a medium-level juvenile delinquent from Newark who always dreamed about doing a movie. Someone said, "Hey, here's $7 million, come in and do this genie movie." What am I going to say, no? So I did it.
>>77969523
Not in Ireland, fella.
>>77968625
Off topic, but I just looked up his filmography to see what else he's been in and saw this
>In September, 2015 whilst promoting sportswear giant Reebok in South Korea; O'Neal joined the cast in the South Korean variety television show Off to School where he went to Seo Incheon High School. The Show features various celebrities attending a selected high school as students for three days.
someone make a dating sim out of this, please
>>77969618
So in other words all the really good rappers are /co/mrades.
>>77969489
Or you know...the actual comic he wrote, The Umbrella Academy
>>77969717
Well, the RZA is party responsible for Afro Samurai
>>77969717
Yup, a lot of rappers are actually just huge nerds.
>>77969763
That soundtrack is fucking great.
>>77969140
Dude, in France tabletops RPGs and manga are normie things. I really don't know what it would take for a frenchie to qualify as a nerd
>>77970024
>in france nerd things aren't coincided nerd things
no shit, french can't be nerds. fuck off frog
>>77969717
The rap, wrestling and comic fanbases/industries have always been close.
Not a stellar example, but Iced Earth did a concept album about Spawn.
>>77966429
Nicholas Cage, though he doesn't read them anymore.
Samuel L. Jackson.
>>77967375
Kofi's done a lot, he went through a phase where he seemingly had a new one every week. Even Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man.
>>77966429
Jay Z named one of his albums after Kingdom Come. The rap game is filled with weaboos, vidya and comic book nerds.
>>77969621
So wait, are you Shaq or are you dating Shaq?
>>77971520
does it matter
>>77969236
Perhaps he was a Stalin fan.
>>77969489
Dude was actually a cartoonist and was interning at Cartoon Network
>>77971051
Jay-Z hasn't even read Kingdom Come.
>>77973145
Didn't Kanye or Jada tell him about Kingdom Come and he thought the name and concept was cool?
>>77966429

I can't be the only one that thinks Cody Rhodes would be great as Speedball/Penace right?
>>77973246
It was Young Guru iirc
>>77970893
Kofi loves comic's, before New Day he got new tights for each ppv. look back and you'll see everything from Joker to Skeletor.
>>77968193
Seth's been on Woods YouTube channel playing video games a good few times. By most accounts he's a really nice guy. Although it did take Joey Mercury giving him a talk about respect to keep him from getting the boot in NXT.
>>77973277
You mean Daniel Bryrock?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_Y9lQs5cbs
>>77973753
That was more because he thought he didn't need to be in developmental.
>>77973783
Everyone needs development for the WWE, whether you're a 15year indy veteran or a dipshit fresh out of college football
>>77970024
>tabletops RPGs are a normie thing
no it's not are you crazy ?
>>77966429
Most rappers are co as shit, tho Kanye and Lupe are more a
>>77970283
Mostly because they are HIGHLY similar in structure .
>>77970057
He's right tho.
You can find manga in any bookstore in france, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure has been a thing over there for years.
Tabletop games are more of a recent fad and you only ever see it in universities, Germany Belgium and Holland are doing it too
Celebrities who are comic book fans?
The Beatles
David Bowie
Junot Diaz
Humberto Eco
Warren Ellis -- the musician
Seth Meyers
Kumail Nanjiani
Barack Obama
Pablo Picasso
John Steinbeck
Patrick Stewart
Quentin Tarantino
Robin Williams
Woodrow Wilson

>>77966429
Most wrestlers are nerds nowadays.
It's because wrestlers nowadays are just kids that watched either golden era WWF or the attitude era.
You have to be at least a bit nerdy to be into wrestling as an adult.
>>77966429
Bryan doesn't own a TV and the only comic he's ever been known to own/read is Beasts of Burden. Which I think somebody gave to him as a gift anyway.
He's far too busy working out, grappling with UFC stars and fucking Brie Bella to bother with shit that would make him "one of us".
Still a swell dude tho
>>77966688
This is a good fucking post.
>>77967872
His first paint job was meant to be an OC donut steel but the artist made it look like Carange instead. Which people online thought was intentional and remarked looked cool. So he kept looking up comic character designs to base his paints off of to pander to the nerd crowd.
>>77968193
>All this nerdiness on the roster makes me realize they probably all get bullied by Dean.
lol yeah, pretty much. Dean remarked in his SMV shoot just before leaving for WWE that he was filled with disdain by how the CZW locker room, once notorious for its rampant drug use and illicit activity, was full of nerds doing nerd shit by the time he got there. Kinda feel sorry for him, since he's such a minority by now. "Get out of here you un-virgin!", etc..
>>77971401
This. Jerry wanted to be a DC comics artist before he ended up getting into wrestling. Went to art school, owns a Batmobile, corrects JBL everytime he gets a comic analogy wrong, etc..
I remember there being some wrestler ( On NXT maybe) that dressed up as Jagi from Fist of The North Star.

>>77967350
Zuks goes off on tangents about comics on How Did This Get Made every once in a blue moon. Most memorable one is at some live show where he yells out something about Genosha.
I think most well known male television writers read comics to some degree because they're all late 30s to early 40s so they were young around the last time comics boomed.
>>77976515
Daniel Bryan with short hair and short beard in an objectively beautiful man
>>77981234
I miss him every day.
>>77966429
Ted Cruz is a huge comic book fan
>>77966429
Affleck is Batnerd.
It's the reason he took DD because that's the closest he thought he'd get to playing Batman.
Kevin Smith named his daughter after Harley Quinn, but I'm pretty sure he was just trying to get Affleck to notice him
>>77979024
Best chance at that happening was back when his girlfriend was working for Marvel, not she's at Image.
It'sMarjorie Liu
>>77966429
I think it's safe to say that most wrestlers are huge comic fans, which given their profession shouldn't be surprising. People dressed up in bright colors beating the hell out of each other and jumping around? Definite crossover there like what >>77966688 said here.
>>77966677
Even when he was 'disfigured' I got huge Doom vibes from Cody desu.

KEK
Plus there was that time at some con he had to ask the moderator which characters were at which company iirc.
Dean really does strike me as someone who entered the WWE at the wrong time. I like him as a wrestler but it's like they're kind of limiting him if that makes any sense?
>>77981689
We all do anon. ;_;

This dude loves X-Files so much he complied old reviews from 90's message boards and talked about every episode on his podcast.
And then gets cast in the x-files reboot. He gets to live it. He gets to be an x-file.
