waking dreams

This could be just a coincidence, but I've noticed something about Castiel on Supernatural.

The gentleman in my icon for this post is Castiel.



The gentleman in this picture is John Constantine (that's the real one, from the Hellblazer comics, not the movie one).

He and Castiel show some... similarities.

They're a similar height and build, and they are both seen in outfits that include a white shirt, a loosened black tie and a tan-coloured trenchcoat.

Now, this could be a coincidence. In fact, it probably is a coincidence. But part of me would like to think that someone who works on Supernatural is a Hellblazer fan and made Castiel look like that as a homage or something.

Finally, I think that should anyone decide to do a proper Hellblazer movie, all we'd need to do is make Misha Collins blond and get him to do an English accent and he'd be perfect.

ETA I have just read on Wikipedia that Castiel is, in fact, "heavily influenced" by the character of John Constantine.

(score one for me!)
