Spider-Girl Preview Available on Her Twitter Account

Spider Girl Gets Twitter AccountYes, comic book company marketers have opened accounts for the comic book characters themselves. Hell, why not? I’d follow Knight and Squire before I’d follow Lindsey Lohan. Luckily though, Marvel Comics has stated that only certain materials like the previews to issues and quotes form Spider-Girl will be made available using the popular social media outlet, and you won’t need to follow Spider-Girl on Twitter in order to follow the story, but it will be like have a “…DVD Extra” for the story.

If you want to follow her, head on over to twitter and look for The_Spider_Girl.

 

Remember, Remember the 5th of November…

Don’t forget it’s Guy Fawkes Day! If you have your masks at home be sure to wear them around the town, but steer clear of  South Maragaret Street. They don’t have much of a sense of humor there.
