E3 News, 'Pirates of the Caribbean' Praise, And LeBron James In Today's Twitter Report

Posted 6/8/11 12:01 pm EST by in Twitter Report


Pirates of the CaribbeanE3 brought bucketfuls of new video game-related announcements this week, including a new Nintendo console and prices for Sony's new handheld system. Some terrible E3-vicinity news showed up last night from Marc Bernardin, though, and it sounds like someone ran off with his laptop. We at Splash Page hope the perpetrator meets with some justice posthaste.

More "X-Men: First Class" commentary continued pouring in as well. Down below you'll find Mark Millar's take, as well as an unabashed show of appreciation for "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" and observations about LeBron James.

The NBA Finals, 'Powers' Updates, And Haunted Apartments In Today's Twitter Report

Posted 5/27/11 2:58 pm EST by in Twitter Report


PowersThe Dallas Mavericks seem to be getting more love in our feed than the Miami Heat as the NBA switches gears from the playoffs into the finals. Bulls fans may hold a grudge against LeBron James, but Dallas is the only team left in his path this year.

The comics twittersphere had loads of other matters to chat about last night as well. Brian Michael Bendis kept his "Powers" updates flowing, but writer Sterling Gates was the one keeping everyone in suspense over a supposed haunting at his apartment. Check out Mark Waid's theory and a deadline obstacle for Bill Willingham down below.

Tornado Reports, 'The Book Of Mormon' Reviews, And 'Celebrity Apprentice' In Today's Twitter Report

Posted 5/23/11 11:59 am EST by in Twitter Report


The Book of MormonIt was impossible to watch the Twitter Report feed last night without catching a glimpse of everyone being affected by the devastating tornado that tore through Joplin, Mo. With a climbing death toll in the dozens and horrendous photos emerging, it was good to hear accounts from those whose families and friends were safe. Nevertheless, the thoughts of the Report are with everyone impacted.

The night brought some of what we usually hope to find as well, though. Christos Gage sounded off with his micro-review of "The Book of Mormon" on Broadway, while Joe Eisma posted some beautiful Power Girl sketch work, and Jeff Katz kept the evening's "Celebrity Apprentice" commentary alive. It's a mixed bag today, but you can read it down below.

Hugh Jackman's Wolverine Diet, 'X-Men: First Class' Criticism, And 'Thor' In Today's Twitter Report

Posted 4/21/11 1:44 pm EST by in Twitter Report


Phil NotoThe new "X-Men: First Class" poster that arrived for the UK this week left a bit to be desired for some mutant fans, but artist Phil Noto drew some inspiration from the the film and made his own poster. Our feed this morning kicked off with a stack of deserved compliments, and I think you'll see why down below.

Hugh Jackman, meanwhile, rarely finds time in his busy life to use Twitter, but going off of his Wolverine diet and taking a production break in Paris evidently got him in the mood today. His exuberance, a sweet Catwoman sketch from Ted Naifeh and gut feelings about "Thor" and "Dylan Dog" all made the day's retweet list.

Meanwhile, diligent comics artists like Mike Oeming and Peter Krause have been honing their skills as usual and posting process shots, which are always great to see. You see those below, along with some reactions to "Celebrity Apprentice" and Gail Simone's wish for a new take on Conan.

Muammar Gaddafi, Kevin Costner, And New Zealand In Today's Twitter Report

Posted 2/22/11 12:43 pm EST by in Twitter Report


Kevin CostnerAs he tends to do, Warren Ellis offered up his thoughts on Muammar Gaddafi this morning, and he summed up the Libyan leader's response to protests there better than anyone else in the Twitter Report feed.

Although there was some lighter buzz today about the Kevin Costner "Superman" reports, the Knicks' Carmelo Anthony trade and the Facebook Breakup Notifier app, Libya and the earthquake in Christchurch, New Zealand, definitely dominated discussion. Thoughts on all of these topics and the lasting legacy of "Spider-Man 3" await you after the jump.

Posted 2/15/11 11:46 am EST by in Twitter Report

Jeff Katz, Jill Thompson and Becky Cloonan all seemed excited about that, even as Jhonen Vasquez sounded a little aggravated about his Valentine's Day expenses.

The other big TV star of the night was a computer named Watson who competed against some simple human beings on "Jeopardy!" A call for the computer's destruction along with some evil plans for Moon Knight and a poetically minimalist summary of "Watchmen" can be see after the jump.

Posted 12/21/10 1:28 pm EST by in Twitter Report


Jim Lee BatmanThe lunar eclipse attracted tweets from all over last night and left a few astonishing amateur photos in the feed this morning. It also prompted a diverse array of reactions, however, and you need look no farther than Jimmy Palmiotti and Joe Hill's posts to see where the poles lie.

In other, more serious musical-related news, writer Brian Lynch got seated for the "Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark" performance that ended badly last night. Check out some perspective from him and others down below, along with some in-progress artwork from Jim Lee.
