I'm in need of some help. I have read all three books of The Walking Dead, just finished up The Killing Joke, Marvel Zombies, Arkham Asylum: ASHOSE, and I'm currently in the middle of The Long Halloween and Preacher: Gone to Texas. You can probably see where I'm going with this.
Are there any other comics out there that are dark, depressing, gory, etc? I saw a thread on Scarecrow a little while back, I think it was one of the Frank Miller comics, but wasn't 100% sure.

Check out anything Cthulu by Boom! Studios.
Fall of Cthulu and Cthulu Tales are absolutely fantastic.

uh you could try Black Gas...it has zombies(sort of) and isn't too long.
Ruins. It's a 2-part series set in the marvel universe where all the characters who get powers die a horrible death.
With the fantastic four, the Thing doesn't go on the ship, instead dr doom goes in his place. I forget what happens to dr doom and mr fantastic, but the flame guy burns to death from the inside and a blind sue only learns this when she trips over his dead body.
Cyclops and most of the other x-men are in a secure prison controlled by xaviour (now president of the US and sanctioning lots of bonbing runs on genosha). Cyclops has his eyes gouged out to stop the lasers from being a problem. Quicksilver had his limbs chopped off because he couldn't controll his speed.
Jean is the only one I remember not being in that prison, surviving as a prostitute. To the main character and Nick Fury she says "I'll do it better than anyone." Nick kills her, babbles something like "You see here, I don't know anything. I'm clean." Then he shoots himself.
It's quite depressing. You should be able to find it on /rs/.
