No problem! I'm always looking for more comics people to follow. Comics & writing can be such solitary things, so it's nice to be able to hop in and start conversations. Long live Twitter!

Here's a few more:

Also check out @mattfraction -- Marvel's current Iron Man writer. He's an incredibly, incredibly funny guy.

Don't expect any spoilers, though.

jst5150 · 03-09-2009, 03:35 PM

List updated with Matt Fraction!

Idahobo · 03-11-2009, 11:19 PM

For web comics fans out there, here are some of the bigger names that I follow and the comics they create. Web comics guys and gals are quite active Tweeters.

Questionable Content is one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. I never knew there was a twitter for that!

davebaxter · 07-12-2010, 05:53 AM

Few more to add
@killthegrizz (comic agency)
@robotcomics (mobile comics publisher)
@gothickmangaka
@Donna_Barr

myrmidon · 07-12-2010, 08:14 PM

Comic Book Resources also has a really great twitter comics database:

lastlittlebird · 08-05-2010, 12:55 AM

@wonderella is there, posting in character (I hope).

Tasmin21 · 08-19-2010, 12:41 AM

Both Wendy & Richard Pini are on Twitter, as @MasqueRedDeath and @elfquest respectively.

Matt Maxwell · 06-16-2011, 09:53 PM

@jeffparker (current writer of Marvel's Red HULK book)
@gabrielhardman (artist of same as well as Heathentown and some other work)

I've got a few others, but they're pretty well on the indie side of things. I'd add myself, but that seems...unseemly (though I've got one OGN published and another hopefully out at the end of the year.)

dclary · 06-28-2012, 10:38 PM

@warrenellis called me a twatwaffle on twitter 2 weeks ago. It made my month. He's a brilliant guy, and very funny.

I can't seem to get anyone to call me a twatwaffle. Do you have any advice?
