The mystery of the comic book hipster cops

Posted

Remember when used to post threads about comics i decided to somewhat bring that back.

 

About a year ago comic-book writer Scott Snyder uncovered an odd background character mystery.

"On Sunday he started Tweeting that he had noticed that the same two men had been appearing as background character or extras in all the DC and Marvel comics aimed at younger readers. One guy has red hair, glasses, and chin hair. The other has dark hair and long sideburns, and sometimes a soul patch.

He offered some photographs into evidence."

"Who are these mystery men who have been appearing in the background of all these comics?

And this is apparently not a new phenomenon"

come to think of it, they do keep appearing in the backrounds. but who are they? maybe the comic book writers? but this seems really weird xD

OMGOSH! The persons that started Marvel and DC?

This is an epic easter egg, i love it even more since it is in both DC and Marvel.

3) "Or just suspicious coincidence"

 

4) Or part of some grand The hotels.com scheme

5) Joe Shuster and Jerry Siegel aka the creators of Superman

 

This meant be one mystery that will never get solved

Marvel should make a movie about them.
