The GoonWorld news, TV events and movies took a back seat in Comics Twitterverse discussions this morning, thanks to Wacom's new Inkling device that keeps track of paper doodles and transfers them to digital files. It was definitely the hot topic of the last few hours.

As of posting time, however, Chris Samnee was beginning to make some waves as well (congratulations to him, by the way!).

Meanwhile, the most movie-relevant comment of the day came from Eric Powell. For those of you still itching with excitement about the "Goon" movie, it sounds like you've still got plenty of waiting left to do. His quick update and more made the retweet list down below.

Ultimate Spider-ManWhatever the cards looked like that you received for your birthday this year, they probably weren't as cool as Jim Lee's. He prefers the DIY variety and shared a picture of the creations he received this year.

Dan Slott, meanwhile, had the opportunity to discuss Spider-Man with his exterminator. What they talked about, an excerpt from the must-read #whengirlsrundc thread, and a note on the 4-year anniversary of artist Mike Wieringo's passing were the tweets that stuck out today.

Laurence FishburneNot content to see Marvel getting all of the attention yesterday over Ultimate Spider-Man's race change, the powers that be behind "The Man of Steel" outed Laurence Fishburne as their new choice to play Clark Kent's boss, Perry White.

Of course, creators are still talking about the Spider-Man decision, too. They've just widened the conversation's scope. Check out what the last day's worth of debate has looked like, what Fred Van Lente predicts will really get readers talking and what a beautiful piece of original Jock Joker artwork looks like before it gets sent off to a buyer.

BridesmaidsThe comics community saw an outpouring of condolences today as news broke that fantasy illustrator and painter Jeffrey Catherine Jones passed away at the age of 67. Billy Tucci, Jock, J.M. DeMatteis and Ron Marz were among those tweeting about her legacy, and there are scores of similar posts where those came from.

In lighter thoughts, Edgar Wright caught "Bridesmaids," and he had good things to say about both the film and Kristen Wiig. With any luck, the rumored upcoming Rapture will hold off long enough that they can eventually work together. Some speculators have pegged the event for Saturday. Brian Lynch, meanwhile, thinks it will inspire a new mega-crossover.

American GodsTweeters had a lot to keep track of last night, and the diversity of discussion this morning reflected that. Neil Gaiman fans have been buzzing about HBO developing an "American Gods" adaptation, while Jon Favreau was monitoring reactions to the new "Cowboys and Aliens" trailer, and everyone with an opinion on Ayn Rand and a Twitter account seems to have something to say about the "Atlas Shrugged" film.

And somehow two posts addressed quantities of Batman, as Jock mentioned how much he has to draw right now and R. Stevens asked whether or not we're all maxed out on the Caped Crusader. These retweets and more made the day's rundown after the jump.

KapowTweets out of Mark Millar's first ever Kapow Comic Con in London over the weekend proved to be mostly positive. For those of us grounded in North America, however, Jock kindly posted a pic from the show, showing a lineup of creators that were about as top notch as they come.

This morning's feed brought in a great haul of artwork, too, including a "fast digital sketch" of Cosmic Boy from Yildiray Cinar that puts many a published cover to shame and a Hermione Granger from Wes Molebash. Those retweets and reactions to "Breaking In" and "Super" make up the day's highlight reel after the jump, so dig in!

Ricky GervaisIf you've been wondering what Jock and Dave Gibbons have been up to recently, it was a good morning to checking your Twitter feeds. It appears that Jock's body of Judge Dredd work continues to grow, while Mark Millar compared Gibbons to Steven Spielberg in discussing their new collaboration.

Elsewhere, creators contemplated stories that are much less likely to see the light of day, though Chris Weston's Star Trek movie pitch and Brian Denham's Marvel Universe "Cars" homage are both things that I would pay money to experience. Check those out along with some expectations for the next iPad and thoughts on Ricky Gervais' jokes at the Golden Globes Sunday.

Harry Potter and the Deathly HallowsLast night kicked off a rush among the creators on the Twitter Report follow list to see "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1," and the next-day reactions that have been showing up look positive. The retweets below also reveal who has ideas for a Harry Potter CCG game.

It's been a big morning for Judge Dredd fans, too. A new look at the upcoming film showed up on the 2000 AD forums, and Jock got an early look, while artist P.J. Holden approved. Find out why after the jump along with which comic book writer composed novels about centaurs when he was 11 years old.

Beatles iTunesBrits hogged all the headlines in today's trending Twitter Report topics. Steve Jobs and Apple got things rolling by announcing that they finally reached a deal to sell Beatles tracks and albums via iTunes, and the comics world's reaction seemed to be pretty in sync with the rest of the Internet. Elsewhere, Prince William's engagement to Kate Middleton has been showing up all over the place, including the posts of Andy Diggle and Jock.

Check out how the news affected those two guys after the jump, where you can also find Phil Hester's advice for new "Firebreather" readers and a picture of what it looks like to paint with Guinness.

GleeYesterday, all of the Twitter drama surrounding "Call of Duty: Black Ops" was about launch day, who got it and who didn't. Today, a cluster of day after posts started showing up, and if you were a comic book creator who was already pushing deadlines, it's entirely possible that you may nuked your sleeping schedule this week trying to squeeze in some hours with the new game.

Today also brought a snazzy "Y: The Last Man" commission from Josh Howard to our feed, which I highly recommend scoping out. Howard's link is retweeted down below along with a complaint about last night's "Glee" episode, Jimmy Palmiotti's hopes for the "Jonah Hex" franchise and Jock's latest assignment from DC Direct.
