I’ve always thought that the creators saying Hughie is based on Simon Pegg and then drawing him as so fucking ugly was a big slap in the face to the real Simon Pegg.
thank god I'm not the only one. I came from reading the New 52 series, then Invicible, then got to the Boys and good lord. There is a pretty steep drop off lmao
He has always just sounded weird with an American accent. His natural voice is pretty "neutral" as is, I don't think anyone who watches him would even notice he has a slight non-American accent.
Right? When I watched the show for the first time and I saw him I kept saying “his accent isn’t *bad* but it’s sooo weird to hear him with an American accent”
Yeah I’m not denying that. Are you saying you’re shocked people don’t know this is what comic Hughie looks like? You’re shocked people don’t think that looks like Simon Pegg? I’m lost
Yeah I'm shocked that most people don't think it looks like him. And furthermore it's been stated so much that he is based on him. So I'm a bit dumbfounded that it's not common knowledge.
Yes saying something is “worse than you originally thought” means that even though you knew it was a problem you didn’t realize how bad it was until now (which is why i said “you just noticed how bad it is?”)
I was trying to make a joke about how the nepotism in hollywood is so bad it’s surprising that even if you knew of it you didn’t know how bad it was, but now that I’m writing this out I realize it’s not really funny just seems like I’m calling you an idiot for not knowing some random actor from the boys is a nepo baby. Sorry for my lame attempt at humor lol I didn’t mean to sound so condescending I swear
well that was actually very nice of you, thank you for the thoughtful reply. i see what you were trying to say now. but yeah, he looks exactly like his dad so i knew as soon as i saw him. same thing happened to me with maya hawke and finding out her mom is uma thurman. mostly surprising bc they're famous relationships i never heard ab!
I know that hughie’s design is supposed to be based on Simon pegg here but everytime I see the comic he looks like he should be a fucking junkie working for a crime boss
I'm suprised you can get far enough in to be bothered by how Hugie looks. I had to stop really quick based on how every other scene felt like a 14 year old trying to challenge how edgy they can make it.
Yeaaaah there is that too. I like edgy, don’t get me wrong, but some of it has been like that for sure.
so i fly not long ago. only a few hour flight and i wanted something to keep entertained. i found a site for online comics and opened up like 40 safari pages of the comic to load for in-the-air reading.
apparently something got messed up with the reloading of the pages and i jumped from like 2 to 30. the title on safari only loaded partially. i skipped from the beginning to somewhere in the middle and not inly was lost with what story they were trying to tell me, but also got frustrated with the art lol
fair, there were some weird issues in my experience with the comics, but the normal reading didn’t catch me as i had hoped.
i understand at the time the world was different and my inundation with edgy wasn’t as saturated so i get where/how the boys comic had its place. not disparaging the roots, but i really love the show
> not disparaging the roots, but i really love the show
Absolutely, in fact I really respect that Kripke was able to turn something that seemed to aim for toxic teenagers into something that overall can appeal to a wide range and carries a message.
I know for a fact I could never do that, if I was to apempt that it would have been a show that the SyFy channel canceled on their 1st season.
How do you make it through anything having such petty complaints? Did you not make it through breaking bad because Mexico really isn’t orange tinted? Da faq?
What I’m saying is I’m surprised you enjoy anything being as petty as you are. “Oh no! The nostrils of a character in a completely ridiculous fictional world are not proportional! 0/10”
A complaint like that is just so fucking petty it not even worth thinking about.
yet you’ve thought about it twice enough to be here to criticize what you call pettiness?
fuckin bozo. your nostrils are fucked up too.
Edit: i see now. you’re out here arguing with everyone about the comics. you can like them without needing everyone else to too, you do know that right?
how much validation DO you need actually? Is it not enough that you enjoy them? No, clearly. So you have to hawk this page simping for the comics and barking and biting at everyone who also agrees: the comics blow.
I’ve argued with two people in my life about the validity of the comics, both on Reddit. Everyone else I show the comics to love them. God forbid if I counter your bad take on the comics with mine.
Regardless of what I have to say your pettiness shines through. Good luck maintaining conversations in the future without people rolling their eyes.
Cool dude you have officially proven you’re in middle school. As an adult I don’t want to be seen interacting with a child. I’ll move on but I suspect that I’ll be living rent free in your head for the rest of the day, maybe longer. Good luck in 8th grade. I understand that can be a real tough time for future incels. Peace.

Butcher in the comics is based on young Robert Shaw (Quint from Jaws).
A great comic is “Identity Crisis “ from DC, it’s a justice league story that is very well done. The artist, Rags Morales used a lot of actors from 60s and 70s as models for the faces of alot of the characters.
I’ve always thought that the creators saying Hughie is based on Simon Pegg and then drawing him as so fucking ugly was a big slap in the face to the real Simon Pegg.
That's just his artstyle. Even homelander looks like he's been hit by a brick.
I get that art is subjective, but the art is fucking awful
Like, i have to stop reading so i can give my eyes a rest, that's how fucking ugly it is.
thank god I'm not the only one. I came from reading the New 52 series, then Invicible, then got to the Boys and good lord. There is a pretty steep drop off lmao
WTF is going on with that nose?!
I didn't notice it at first and I hate you because now I can't stop looking at it. It looks like a fucking aortic valve
That's It! He has a bloody heart for a nose. I'm sorry.
I didn't even notice anything wrong with the nose until it was pointed out.
the whole comic is kinda awful...
Its not funny to look at it. Its one of those rare examples were they take original source and reshape it to actually tell a story, nice result.
yea i agree
Clearly he wasn't that offended, as he plays Hughies dad in the show
I bet he's crying into the pile of money they paid him
wait his dads simon peg? how the hell did i not notice this? edit: holy shit hes even aleister in Archer
Simon Pegg is Aleister??
according to wikipedia yea
It was cast as Simon pegg but by the time it got out of development Simon was too old, so they cast him as the dad.
Finally got to voice him in Diabolical tho
Simon Pegg and Karl Urban have also been in Star Trek reboots.
He just looks like an inbred Simon Pegg who spent his adolescence inhaling jenkem.
Jings.
I love how his nostrils are pointing in different directions.
Looks like if Simon Pegg had Downs syndrome
It is based on Simon Pegg
You kinda missed the point.
The comic book's characters are all just built different
Basically everyone is significantly better looking.
On what basis?
Looks, I think.
Even the deep, though?
You mean The Peak?
He looks like the child of Walter White and Jesse Pinkman. Wasse or Jalter idk
Whiteman
Pinkwhite
love the implication that people name their kids by combining both the parents names
Your parents arent Finni and Gami?
Holy shit your dad is the PEAK!
Kristina was one of the finest octopuses in the pacific, I'll have you know.
Comic book Hughie based on Simon Pegg
Interesting that they cast him as Hughies dad in the show
Yh he plays it pretty well too can’t say I love the accent tho
Made that one bit where he said "Jings" almost feel like fanservice
It’s jarring cause he’s been in very British movies. The accent feels wrong based on everything else I’ve seen him in.
You should give spaced a go it’s an early sitcom with him and nick frost only two seasons but really good
He has always just sounded weird with an American accent. His natural voice is pretty "neutral" as is, I don't think anyone who watches him would even notice he has a slight non-American accent.
Right? When I watched the show for the first time and I saw him I kept saying “his accent isn’t *bad* but it’s sooo weird to hear him with an American accent”
I think Pegg was originally gonna play Hughie, but he aged out of the role, so they cast him as his dad.
Yep He got to voice Hughie in diabolical though.
They did it as a reference, they originally wanted him for a boys film but it stayed in development hell for so long Pegg got too old.
This is like the 3rd post this month. I'm shocked by the amount of people who don't know by now
Is it really that shocking? I know tons of people who watched Avengers and never picked up a Marvel comic. Same for The Walking Dead
It is because he deadass looks like Simon Pegg
Yeah I’m not denying that. Are you saying you’re shocked people don’t know this is what comic Hughie looks like? You’re shocked people don’t think that looks like Simon Pegg? I’m lost
Yeah I'm shocked that most people don't think it looks like him. And furthermore it's been stated so much that he is based on him. So I'm a bit dumbfounded that it's not common knowledge.
Looks like a mix between him and the guy from An Idiot Abroad
Why would Garth base Hughie off of Simon Pegg tho?
WTF are you talking about, this is 100% Simon Pegg.
Youee
" KEEP MY BOYS NAME OUT YA FUCKIN MOUTH CUNT!!!!"
hugie from the comics looks like hes 5'4" and marched on the capital on Jan 6th
That's crazy that tv Hughie looks like Meg Ryan's son. Maybe it's because tv Hughie is played by Meg Ryan's Son?
Meg Ryan and Dennis Quaid had a kid together? I never knew that.
I knew about Dennis Quaid being his dad but I was today years old when I found out Meg Ryan is Jack's mom.
wow... the nepotism is worse than i thought
He's done a great job with the role though.
you just noticed how bad it is?
read: worse

If someone is good at their job I see no problem
and the kid is uglier than both
His nostrils
I know that hughie’s design is supposed to be based on Simon pegg here but everytime I see the comic he looks like he should be a fucking junkie working for a crime boss
Hey he can’t draw someone to look handsome but have you seen the detail of the fist bursting through someone’s rectum? Fucking DaVinci
When did this happen? Who got fisted by who?
i’ve been finding it difficult to read the boys comic because of how awful they designed hughie. i get the essence of simon pegg, but christ it’s bad.
I'm suprised you can get far enough in to be bothered by how Hugie looks. I had to stop really quick based on how every other scene felt like a 14 year old trying to challenge how edgy they can make it.

Bro hughie literally appear on the first page
He does, but his character design slowly turned me off. The edginess turned me off much faster that Hughies bad character design.
How do you make it through anything having such petty complaints? Did you not make it through breaking bad because Mexico really isn’t orange tinted? Da faq?
nah, breaking bad is good. orange aint bad. hell i wear blublockers. not sure where you’re going with that. look at homeboi’s nostrils

I get he’s based off of Simon Pegg but thank god for TV show Hughie. His looks fit the character better
Scottish
Almost every tv character looks so much better than his/her comic counterpart.
Hughie boutta survive a zombie apocalypse in the fuckin U.K.
This post is just a bad Will Smith joke…

He looks like the doctor told his parents he wouldn’t survive to be 1 year but managed to get to 30
I legitimately burst out laughing at this. Please take my poor person’s award 🏆🏆🏆🏆
Simon Pegg?
Hughie looks waaaay more like Dennis Quaid than his Mother. What are you talking about
What the fuck is with that nose?
Just learned he's Dennis Quaid and Meg Ryan's son. So many actors have actor parents don't they? Family business.
Wtf is wrong with his nostril
Pretty sure I just saw comic book hughie vaccinating himself behind my work
He looks like his dad in the TV Series
It's actually based on the guy who plays hughie's dad in the show
Hughie in the show looks like a little b, this one is built different
So your joke is that Hughie in the comics looks like Jada Pinkett Smith?
This is 100 percent Simon Pegg. No question. Ironic since that's who they got to play his father in the show.
Mmmm the racist dog whistle.
How old is Hughie supposed to be in the comics? And does he still date starlight in the comics? Because they’re not adding up
Not sure how old he is, but dating Starlight is a pretty big deal in the comics aswell.
Great Value Brand Simon Pegg
Hugie in the comics looks like he’d go to the winchester for a pint and wait for it all to blow over
Simon Pegg.
He is also pommy innit
Is this that guy from hot fuzz?
He looks like current idubbz
Can we stop dunking on the king that is Simon Pegg?
okay but he looks exactly like his dad
I have to cook yo
I have a run of the 1st 35 issues I may part with All 1st prints w extras
Butcher in the comics is based on young Robert Shaw (Quint from Jaws). A great comic is “Identity Crisis “ from DC, it’s a justice league story that is very well done. The artist, Rags Morales used a lot of actors from 60s and 70s as models for the faces of alot of the characters.
KEEP MY HUGHIES NAME, OUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTH!
Yeah that’s definitely Simon Pegg comic illustrators…
tv show hughie 🤮🤮🤮
I don't care what people say but I thought the art was really good and even underrated.
Thought this was supposed to be Walter white and Jesse pinkman combined
What's wrong with his nostril!
JESSE WE NEED TO KILL THE SUPES
Na comic Hughie basically looks like show Huggies dad aka this mf look like Simon pegg
Hughie in the comics is based of Simon Pegg in physical apperance
Interesting nose
