The $θ$-twistor versus the supertwistorAbstract: We introduce the $\theta$-twistor which is a new supersymmetric generalization of the Penrose twistor and is also alternative to the supertwistor. The $\theta$-twistor is a triple of {\it spinors} including the spinor $\theta$ extending the Penrose's double of spinors. Using the $\theta$-twistors yields an infinite chain of massless higher spin chiral supermultiplets $({1/2},1), (1, {3/2}), ({3/2},2),...,(S, S+{1/2})$ generalizing the known scalar $(0,{1/2})$ supermultiplet
