I’ve read some Fables because I like The Wolf Among Us, although it was a bit eh. I heard a lot of good things about Sandman so I might look into that. I also came across one called “100 Bullets” which seem cheesy but interesting nonetheless.
I’m looking for something like crime, mystery, or horror (haven’t really seen anything truly horrifying from the west outside of alt comix stuff), but anything works as long as it’s good. Also, preferably no “saving the world” stuff.
If you like D&D, Rat Queens and Skullkickers are both fun romps. The former, in particular, has some fun takes on traditional classc concepts like Cleric and Druid. Also, they do the female dwarf right by giving her a beard.
For a quick hit Lovecraftian Horror, try Alan Moore's The Courtyard. Its a 1920s murder mystery they goes sideways in a freaky fun way.
The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen is a classic for a reason. Lots of cool takes on historic characters. Still problematic at points, but worth it for the action and intrigue Moore delivers.
The Black Moon Chronicles has amazing art. A French fantasy epic from the 1990s, with all the imperial intrigues of a GRRM novel, it sets the standard for Grimdark Fantasy as a genre.
