About 
James Tynion IV was asked if he would write the X-Men as a horror comic, and he was measured in his response, at least, initially.

Mark Waid, The World's Greatest iPad Detective
It began yesterday with this tweet;
Left my iPad on the Delta flight to LAX, didn't realize it until I walked in the door at home. I'll never see it again, will I?
No way to directly contact Delta or flight crew. All I can do is fill out an online lost&found form. Splendid. GREAT.
So Mark began to use MobileMe to track down his iPad.
MobileMe says it was still on the plane 1 hr later, but now can no longer track.
That doesn't sound like a good sign.
He began tweeting to DeltaAssist
Accidentally left my iPad behind on last night's flt 2195, seat 13C. Any chance of ever getting it back?
Thanks. Right now, it's showing that it's on Coffman Road north of Indianapolis. Is that a Delta Lost and Found facility?
Can you at least tell me where the L&F facility in Indianapolis is? Not even a street address, just a street? PLEASE.
But all DeltaAssist would say was to fill in a form and contact the police. But Mark was on the case.
It's official–asshole on Coffman Road in Indianapolis stole my iPad on the return flight. Any advice on filing a police report?
My iPad thief lives just E of the 465/65 interchange in Indianapolis–can any locals name the neighborhood for me so I can contact cops?
I can brick the iPad, yes, but that also wipes out all way to easily prove it's mine, so I'm hesitant.
He then gets an address, which gets handed to a Titter follower's policeman chum.
6295 Coffman Road.
And sends messages to the missing iPad.
All messages were ignored. Also, my lock screen has "call [my number] for reward" in giant letters." Jerk.
But then we have bad news.
Update: Thief wiped the iPad this morning because it's no longer receiving messages I send to it. It's now untraceable. Die, you thief.
Pad update: as of 23 minutes ago, the thief is at the Courtyard Motel at the Indianapolis Airport. Die, thief.
Local cops won't do anything without an LA police report, and LA police are too busy for this, say call back later.
Thanks for the support, all. Putting this iPad theft/drama to bed and moving on now. Final score: Crooks 1, Waid -$916.75.
There's only one thing for it Mark. You will have to become a bat. And this was a hell of an excuse for his Irredeemable artist;
Hey, @petergkrause, if you're following this drama, this is why you don't have pages today: they were on the stolen unit and this has eaten up all of today.
