OP's characterization sounds more reminiscent of the pedantic 'nerd' than of the 'hipster.' Take most hipster fads of the past decade -- trucker hats in the early 2000s, vinyl records, hand cranked burr coffee grinders, people dressed as lumberjacks and park rangers in Bed Stuy, 24 year olds dressed like your grandma in Portland -- and the key characteristic is the fetishization of a noble, yet obscure and disenfranchised past, a poetic revelry in faux poverty. This seems a bit off from the typical 'comic-book guy' stereotype.
