Detective Comics' Scott Snyder did some of his own sleuth work, noticing two mysterious characters featured in a variety of different children's comic books. They have been appearing in both the background and foreground as police officers, park rangers, security guards, and secret service agents. The same characters also seem to be popping up in other forms of media, allegedly discovered as a pair of cops in South Park, and seemingly making appearances in a number of commercials and movies. Are our eyes playing tricks on us? Are these cops stalking the general public, like Big Brother watching around every corner? Are they intergalactic time lords or alter egos of Bill S. Preston, Esquire, and Ted Theodore Logan, traveling between comic book worlds? Who are these "mystery hipster cops"? How far back does this possible conspiracy go? Is it a case of pre-emptive marketing, a subliminal preview of the next duo of comic book superstars? Are these simply stock images of generic extras that artists use from a catalog of background characters? Whatever it is, as W.F. Crispy pleads, "We gotta get to the bottom of this". This is a mystery that needs to be solved...before it's too late!!!

Mystery Hipster Cops (Lyrics)

Yo, this is W.F. Crispy
Yeah, you know you missed me
Back on the scene to help you people solve this mystery
Of these hippies
Who these pigs be?
Hidden right in front of me in every comic book I read

One's a redhead, medium build
He's the kind of guy in horror movies always gets killed
Goatee, dark-rimmed glasses
Leader of the duo tryin to wear both badges
Other cop, patch full of soul
He be cuffin' up villains while he's on his patrol
Dedicated, he's the serious one
Got his hair done, nails done, everything done, done (oh he's fancy)

CHORUS
(Mystery hipster cops)
And I mean mystery
Detective time lords
Travelin' through history
(Always come out on top)
They're everywhere I look
I see them in the movies, tv shows, and comic books
(Maybe they're just robots)
Can you explain to me, somebody help me please
Why are these cops always lookin' at me?
(Mystery hipster cops)
A big conspiracy
Who is this secret team of superhero time police?

There they go again
I think the paranoia's setting in
I feel like Rockwell cause Somebody's Watchin' Me, and then
It's like the Mona Lisa when their eyes follow me
But who is their DaVinci?
Why can't he leave me be?

(Word up) They makin' Cameos
In every which direction
On the beat in Gotham City
Here for your protection
Batman, Spiderman
Wonder Woman, Transformers
Paranormal gumshoes
Intergalactic barnstormers

CHORUS
(Mystery hipster cops)
And I mean mystery
Detective time lords
Travelin' through history
(Always come out on top)
They're everywhere I look
I see them in the movies, tv shows, and comic books
(Maybe they're just robots)
Can you explain to me, somebody help me please
Why are these cops always lookin' at me?
(Mystery hipster cops)
A big conspiracy
Who is this secret team of superhero time police?

It's very clear to me
That this is a conspiracy
Break down the evidence
Go one-by-one through each theory:
(One) Scott Snyder, is he the insider? Sending out tweets
that spread like wildfire
(Two) Are these the new breed comic book detectives
Deployed by Hollywood to garner your attention
(Three) Are these just stock photo catalog cookie cutters
Cardboard cutout characters for lazy artist motherf*ckers?
(Four) Are these some look-alikes, Seth Green, Joseph Feinnes
Lewis, Wilbur Robinson, Doctor Venture, Lost guys?

CHORUS
(Mystery hipster cops)
And I mean mystery
Detective time lords
Travelin' through history
(Always come out on top)
They're everywhere I look
I see them in the movies, tv shows, and comic books
(Maybe they're just robots)
Can you explain to me, somebody help me please
Why are these cops always lookin' at me?
(Mystery hipster cops)
A big conspiracy
Who is this secret team of superhero time police?

Government agent infiltration
Simultaneous destinations
Figments of our imagination
Nothing short of abbreviations
FBI, CIA, MVP of the NBA
DEA aka VIP of the LPGA
FCC, KGB
CEO of the Justice League
LMAO, OMG
WF, it's just...CRISPY!!!!!

CHORUS
(Mystery hipster cops)
And I mean mystery
Detective time lords
Travelin' through history
(Always come out on top)
They're everywhere I look
I see them in the movies, tv shows, and comic books
(Maybe they're just robots)
Can you explain to me, somebody help me please
Why are these cops always lookin' at me?
(Mystery hipster cops)
A big conspiracy
Who is this secret team of superhero time police?
