Grant Morrison has always been a stylish chap, but as an undated photo posted by Jill Thompson shows, he probably rocks black biker leather better than anyone else in the industry — almost as well as Stan Lee rocks a Marvel movie cameo, in fact.
DC's announcement that they would be rebooting Superman and Batman continuities for their new "DC: Earth One" graphic novels sparked a few tweets as well, including Jamal Igle, who offered some inside-the-industry perspective. Check out all of those posts after the jump alongside a shot of Dan Aykroyd enjoying a zombie graphic novel while surrounded by vodka, where Cameron Stewart's at with "Batman and Robin" and much more.
It's all in the Twitter Report for December 7, 2009.

Parting Wisdom for the Day:
@kodychamberlain If you've ever wondered, the answer is YES. Penciling, inking, and coloring a comic book solo is more work than penciling. #needmoresleep
