Tuesday brought sad news for punk rock fans with the death of former X-Ray Spex singer Poly Styrene. Flagrant music lovers Kieron Gillen and Jamie McKelvie shared what she meant to them, both as a music icon and performer with a punny name.
The flip-side of authority in the U.K. continued to trend in conversations as well, though, with Mark Millar and Paul Grist sounding off about the British royal family and their ensuing wedding. Read on for jabs, queries, and "Doctor Who" and "The Killing" criticism.
I'm @brianwarmoth, and this is the Twitter Report for April 26, 2011.
Poly Styrene pt. 1: @kierongillen RIP Poly Styrene. Her voice meant more than a tweet can hold. X-ray Spex made me feel invulnerable and fragile simultaneously.
-Kieron Gillen, Writer ("Phonogram," "Thor")
Poly Styrene pt. 2: @McKelvie Poly Styrene. There was a pun name. None of this Perry Farrel business. RIP.
-Jamie McKelvie, Artist ("Phonogram," "Suburban Glamour")
"The Killing" pt. 1: @MikeCosta Detective on THE KILLING just commanded an 8mm projector to "rewind" and the image ran backward on the screen. Seriously, this show is awful
-Mike Costa, Writer ("G.I. Joe: Cobra," "Resistance")
"The Killing" pt. 2: @IvanBrandon after watching the pilot for THE KILLING the 1 saving grace is that i'm not 100% positive i hate it yet.
-Ivan Brandon, Writer ("Viking," "NYC Mech")
@mattfraction oh, wait, it's not PRINCE that's getting married? #f---it
-Matt Fraction, Writer ("Thor," "Casanova")
@mrmarkmillar Saw a pic of Prince Edward in the papers and genuinely startled. He's gone more FISH than human now. Royals need those Middleton genes ASAP!
-Mark Millar, Writer ("Wanted," "Kick-Ass")
@mistergrist just heard George Michaels Royal Wedding song. I feel a little sick
-Paul Grist, Writer/Artist ("Jack Staff," "Kane")
@Templesmith It has been concluded that River is actually a future version of Rory, with a sex change and advanced plastic surgery.
-Ben Templesmith, Writer/Artist ("30 Days of Night," "Welcome to Hoxford")
