Bryan Lee Johnson est un Acteur, Réalisateur et Scénariste Américain né le 7 décembre 1967
Bryan Lee Johnson (born December 7, 1967) is a writer, actor, podcaster, screenwriter and comic book writer associated with Kevin Smith and the View Askewniverse. He is best known by his local fame in New Jersey and appearances in filmmaker Smith's New Jersey films as comic book fan Steve-Dave Pulasti. He was also the basis for the Clerks character Randal Graves. Through his friendship with Smith, he was often involved in his productions until Smith moved to Los Angeles. He worked briefly at the Los Angeles branch of Smith's comic book store, Jay and Silent Bob's Secret Stash. He became co-host of the Tell 'Em Steve-Dave! podcast with friend Walt Flanagan and Brian Quinn. He also stars in the AMC reality series Comic Book Men.
Johnson has collaborated with Flanagan in creating comics adapted from their screenplays, including the 2004 miniseries Karney and the 2007 miniseries War of the Undead. According to an April 12, 2013 posting, Johnson no longer lives in his parents' basement.
Born in Highlands, New Jersey, Johnson attended Highlands Elementary School there (part of the Highlands School District) and Henry Hudson Regional High School, graduating in the mid 1980s.
He got a job as a lifeguard at a recreational center for young people after visiting his friend Walt Flanagan there frequently. In about 87 or 88 Kevin Smith began to work at the Rec, and began to hang out with Walt and Bry. Smith credits Bryan with developing his sense of humor. Johnson left his parents house for a while to live with and help his grandmother (and also to get away from a chaotic home situation).
Johnson played guitar in high school and was interested in neo-classical artists like Yngwie Malmsteen. He moved to California to go to the Guitar Institute of Los Angeles, but was disturbed by witnessing a suicide on his first day in Hollywood, and by hearing about a stabbing murder nearby where he was staying. He went back to Jersey after a few weeks.
He also worked at Quickstop with Kevin Smith. During that period he and Kevin got into a disagreement over a joke-sign Johnson hung outside the store that resulted in a police visit. This resulted in Johnson and Smith not speaking for many months. Johnson thus missed the filming of Clerks, even though the Randall character was based on him. Johnson quit the store and then worked moving furniture for a short time. After that he worked in a psych ward for youth. He got written up too many times and left. Johnson and Smith made-up after Smith's sister persuaded Smith to attend a Landmark Forum self development course that required him to contact people he had lost contact with.
For a while Johnson ran Smith's Secret Stash comic book store. He left to make the film Vulgar.
In late 2009 Johnson began the podcast Tell 'Em Steve-Dave with his friends Walt Flanagan and Brian Quinn. The podcast became very popular and eventually led to Johnson and Flanagan's casting in the TV show Comic Book Men.

Loki et Bartleby, deux anges déchus et bloqués sur Terre depuis plusieurs siècles, souhaitent retourner au Paradis. De nos jours, ils trouvent une faille logique qui les lavent de leurs péchés, cela leur permettant ainsi un retour au ciel. Mais Dieu a disparu sur Terre. Son adjoint, le Metatron, charge une femme, Bethany, de les faire renoncer à leur projet. Il lui adjoint pour cela deux prophètes (les obsédés sexuels déjantés Jay et Silent Bob). Ils seront accompagnés par deux êtres venus des cieux, Rufus (qui dit être le 13e apôtre) et Sérendipité (ex-muse devenue stripteaseuse). De son côté, le démon Azraël aide les deux anges déchus : s’ils arrivent à rentrer au paradis, cela montrera que Dieu est faillible dans ses décisions et entraînera la fin de toute chose.
