'Amazing Spider-Man' Teaser Leak, 'Walking Dead' Season 2 And Superman In Today's Twitter Report

Posted 7/19/11 12:30 pm EST by in Twitter Report


The Amazing Spider-ManComic-Con International begins on Wednesday, so of course everyone is tweeting about upcoming comic book movie projects and conveniently leaked teasers. This means that Hollywood publicity people are doing their jobs!

The "Amazing Spider-Man" teaser that slipped out got a relatively warm reception, though P.J. Holden surely isn't the only Spidey reader suffering from origin story fatigue. The "Walking Dead" Season 2 trailer, meanwhile, didn't give anything away about what AMC's got in store, but it was fun to see. Damon Lindelof's thoughts on the show, as well as "Powers" TV info and Mark Waid's frustrations over DC rebooting Superman made the day's top retweets after the jump.

'X-Men: First Class' Buzz, iOS 5, And Anthony Weiner In Today's Twitter Report

Posted 6/7/11 11:31 am EST by in Twitter Report


iOS 5Apple butted heads with E3 yesterday, announcing their new iOS 5 for iPhones and iPads just as video game makers began rolling out their big reveals for the summer. Greg Rucka seemed to be no big fan of Apple's iCloud service, while Stephen Colbert expects the new iPhone operating system to open up opportunities.

Grumblings about shamed U.S. Representative Anthony Weiner were also easy to come across last night. Mark Waid and John Rogers swapped opinions on the matter, while buzz about "X-Men: First Class" continued to be far more positive. Check out what Chloe Moretz and David Hahn thought—and who's been trying to hypnotize himself—after the jump.

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.

Eisner Nominations, 'American Idol' And Black Canary Vs. Black Widow In Today's Twitter Report

Posted 4/8/11 1:00 pm EST by in Twitter Report


Locke and KeyIf you follow any number of comics creators on Twitter, you know that the official list of 2011 Eisner nominations emerged yesterday. Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez enjoyed a whopping four nominations between them for their work on "Locke and Key," and Jim McCann was definitely feeling the love for "Return of the Dapper Men." Meanwhile, Mark Waid used a lot of capital letters to sound off about a lack of Boom! Studios titles on the list. ("I Thought You Would Be Funnier" did nab a nod for Best Humor Publication, though.")

The greatest retweets of the day list contains other jewels as well today, with a rousing debate about who would win in a fight between Black Canary and Black Widow and some fine advice to artists from Simon Spurrier. Look, learn and see if you reacted to "American Idol" the same way Ty Templeton did after the jump.

Posted 3/3/11 1:31 pm EST by in Twitter Report


Diane LaneThe big casting announcement of the week thus far has been Diane Lane as Martha Kent in Zack Snyder's "Superman" reboot. Unsurprisingly, DC's big tweeters, Geoff Johns and Jim Lee came out in support of her. Mark Waid expressed a bit of anxiety, though.

Paul Dini, meanwhile, was torn over how to feel about a "Justice League Unlimited" Batman figure he discovered. His thoughts on Wonder Pig, as well as an epic tale of Craigslist quest, Mark Millar's anti-Christian Bale criticism and Bryan Lee O'Malley on creating new characters await you after the jump.

Posted 12/10/10 1:01 pm EST by in Twitter Report


ThorTony Moore's got big supporter on Twitter in his fellow Robert Kirkman collaborator Ryan Ottley, who made a public plea today get Marvel to let Moore do more Venom covers. I don't know that there was an official Marvel response to that request, but the publisher's envoy to Singapore has been regaling their followers with tales, pictures and adventures this week. C.B. Cebulski, Matt Fraction and Ivan Brandon have all been signing, paneling and posting in their capacities there, though Fraction's impact on the Singapore dumpling supply might need to be independently verified.

In trending topic reactions, a protester swarm's clash with Prince Charles' car caught a lot of tweet attention; Michael Kupperman had some advice for the British royal family member, while Christian Beranek reacted to the new "Transformers: Dark of the Moon" teaser. You can find what he thought and who has a very special reason for wanting to work on a "Thor" book down below.

'The Walking Dead' Episode 3, 'Yo Gabba Gabba!' And Mark Waid's iPad In Today's Twitter Report

Posted 11/15/10 2:14 pm EST by in Twitter Report


The Walking Dead Episode 3Somewhere in Indiana, someone is probably walking around with Mark Waid's iPad, and he's none too thrilled about it. If you've been following his updates over the last 24 hours, you've been witness to an update roller coaster as the device was left on a plane, temporarily tracked, and then lost again. The Twitter Report hopes the culprit can still be brought to justice though.

And speaking of things walking around, the third episode of "The Walking Dead" ran on AMC last night. Mark Brooks appreciates everyone who held off on their tweets until it was over, while Kevin Mellon prefers to experience his zombie stories through a non-traditional medium. Find out if you're jealous after the jump, where you'll also see a reaction to "Megamind" and who gave the false impression to his followers that he went to see "Yo Gabba Gabba!" alone and was forced to explain himself.
