Not at all.  If you look at the comments above, we've figured it out, and the mystery hipster cops don't even appear.

The artist of the issue, Trevor McCarthy, included the two leads of his creator-owned OGN The Hashishian in this issue of Gates of Gotham.  The co-author, Scott Snyder, thought they were the mystery hipster cops because one of the two characters cameo-ed resembles the red headed, glasses wearing hipster cops.

Scott Snyder retweeted this article with the comment added: "Could I be behind it ... and not even know?!" Indicating that he didn't plan on an appearance by the mystery hipster cops, but was taken by surprise when he believed he saw them.

June 22, 2011 8:16 pm @TheNextChampion  It hasn't been released yet.  There are a couple other Joe Harris books from Oni that have already come out, like Ghost Projekt, and that haven't come out yet like Spontaneous, and Trevor McCarthy has done some Batman stuff at DC with last winter's Batman and Detective Comics annuals and this Gates of Gotham mini series.

The Hashishian looks fantastic though, it is like Harold and Kumar meet the Manchurian candidate and Indiana Jones.  It is like an epic stoner adventure movie in a graphic novel, and when it does come out, it looks like it will be fantastic.  There are a bunch of uncolored pages up at Trevor McCarthy's deviantart page too. 

June 22, 2011 8:02 pm @PaulMontgomery  That makes sense, it could be how he saw the panel.  Interesting either way.

June 22, 2011 7:58 pm I mean, look at the overweight black fellow with the full goatee?  I can see the other lead from the Hashishian looking very much like the one hispter cop.  But the two of those guys together looks like the main characters from Trevor's Oni OGN The Hashishian.

Is it possible the hispter cops are in the book as well?  Could the one lead from the Hashishian be living a double life as one of the hipster cops?

Could be.

June 22, 2011 7:55 pm You were told you'd find a cameo of the hipster cops?  Because that cameo is the of the leads to "The Hashishian" by Trevor McCarthy, the arist of Gates of Gotham.

June 22, 2011 7:50 pm Those aren't the hipster cops at all.

Firstly, the hipster cops are both white guys, and the guy with the dark hair has a soul patch.  The fellow in glasses resembled him, but it is a coincidence I assure you. 

The cameo you've pointed out are the leads from the action/comedy/stoner/epic "The Hashisian" by Trevor McCarthy and Joe Harris coming from Oni Press.

You can see them in a page from the Hashishian here:
