So. Aside from Watchmen (which I really don't care for) and The Killing Joke (finally read today. so amazing)
I don't really know any dark DC comics/story arcs
I heard of supposedly another good Batman one but can't seem to find it
I think it's called "Death in the Family" or Death of The Family?

Anyways
Anyone know some good dark comics?

If you like dark comics, anything from Darkhorse is wonderful.

Sandman is extremely dark but awesome. Also, Preacher is another really good one.

If you like action, Blade of the Immortal is freaking nuts.

Only thing I know from dark horse is hellboy
Which. The comics are...quite disturbing. Sometimes lol. But I'll see if I can't find those they sound decent enough.

Ertai

Pretty much any comic shop should have them. They are still making Sandman I do believe.

Great. Next step...find a comic shop near me! :3

The spawn comics are also dark but those are from image comics.

Check out the Vertigo imprint of DC. It focuses on darker, more mature comics. Preacher and Sandman are both from Vertigo. Swamp Thing also gets pretty dark.

I really love spawn actually.
Read the short "In Heaven" piece and it was really cool. Plus I love the movie.
