Pop culture iconography

[tirra_lyrra]

The iconic tan trench: no noir detective is complete without one. The other day I was seized by this fic bunny about Jimmy/Castiel's coat (I’m nerdishly fascinated by the pop culture iconography of his clothes . . . don't judge); a bunny that totally died and left me with 500 crappy words and burning need to know: where did this visual come from

Michael the Archangel from the movie Michael played by John Travolta. He wore one to hide his wings. :)

Oh, yeah! Great addition--thank you! I haven't seen that movie in ages.

Supernatural? Needs more angels on the dance floor.

Ooh, lovely picspam here! Much appreciating the John Constantine love. <3

Thanks! Doing this has made me wonder if I shouldn't seek out Hellblazer beyond the film. It seems pretty awesome.

OMG you totally should!! John is such a snark-face, he basically just wanders around being totally awesome and in the right place at the right time, snarking at people and generally kicking demon arse.

As it happens, I actually have the first, oh, 150 Hellblazer comics in .rar format uploaded to my sendspace. Interested?

I would be very interested :)

Oh, this is so cute! I love that you included Rick's trenchcoat from Casablanca because that is one of my all-time favorite movies.

[tirra_lyrra]

Thanks! I adore Casablanca, too. Plus, between Rick and Sam Spade, Bogart started it all.
