Grimly cynical (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sardonic

'grimly cynical' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for sardonic that I've seen before include "Sarcastic" , "Dry, cynically mocking" , "Derisively ironic" , "Cynical -- so rancid (anag)" , "Humorous in grim way - seems so rancid" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate, The Times and The Sun.
