What Captain Marvel's Cast Look Like In The Comics
3. Coulson
Marvel Comics
In The Comics:
One of the few comic book characters to have made their way into the comics after first appearing in a different medium, Agent Coulson first appeared in Marvel continuity in Battle Scars #6, which also happened to introduce the character of Nick Fury Jr., who was designed to mirror SLJ's depiction of the character in the MCU.
Coulson, as he does in the MCU, tends to wear a black suit with shades.
In The Film:
Marvel Studios
Clark Gregg reprises his role as Coulson for Captain Marvel and, like Jackson, is digitally de-aged around 25 years to correspond with the film's nineties setting. Unsurprisingly, given the comics version of the character is inspired by his likeness, he looks just like the version seen in Marvel's books.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
