You know, it took from when this was posted to just now to realize it was a CSI joke. I still thought it was hilarious but I was thinking more Lil Jon hilarious since it looked like Tommy was screaming it.

I tried one with a Gotham skyline, but Tommy's face sells the gag better. So I just tell myself that Tommy's first urge when seeing a dead body is to pretend he is David Caruso.

Mark Waid's twitter icon is just the best.

Mark Waid tweeted a frustration with how drat gloomy superhero comics are nowadays. He also writes a comic that is a superhero comic and is pretty drat gloomy, and that's the last page of it. So the implication is that the depressing comic mentioned in the tweet was his own.

He actually said he was tired of how bad and repetitive superhero comics have been lately. "Gloomy" is mis-characterizing it, but I guess you didn't want to flat-out say you think Irredeemable is the same lovely story you've read a dozen times?

I didn't want to say that because Irredeemable is my favorite comic book since All-Star Superman ended and me saying it's lovely would be me telling a lie.

EDIT:

Mark Waid posted:

...there is a new, recent cynicism to many of them that I find exhausting and mean-spirited and uninspiring and life-denying.

Doesn't seem a far leap from this to 'gloomy' to me.

Gavok posted:

Then the last page reveal shows that he opened up ANOTHER portal behind Orian so he can catch the bullet for later use. Which begs the question: WHY DID HE NOT JUST KILL THEM BOTH?

Qubit, all throughout the issue, talks about how much he doesn't want to kill the Plutonian - that he thinks he can still reach him. This isn't the first time it's been brought up that Qubit thinks this, either.

I thought the joke of "bald man saying something to a black-haired superhero that gobsmacks him" was funnier than trusting that everyone knew the name of Frank's wife. (I don't.)
