I need some good suggestions for either very dark characters, or very funny ones, funny in a wrong way.
Now I know I haven't scratched the tip of the iceberg, but I read some Simon Dark, and I liked it. Sort of dark, but I'd like darker.
I stumbled upon the most perverted and obscene comic in Satan's Sodomy Baby... While I don't really want much more depraved then that, it did make me laugh out loud, and I wouldn't mind other stuff like that, too varying degrees of the obscene.
I need the comic book aficionados to help me out with this!

Have you tried The Boys? It's from the minds of Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson, so it's guaranteed to be at least a little messed up. Really, you could mine the works of those two and find the truly bizarre (Wormwood, anyone?).

Well if you liked Satans Sodomy Baby you would probably like the rest of The Goon. It is definitely obscenely funny. Other than that, I would second The Boys as that is quite good as well.

Mark Millar's Unfunnies just finished out. You can't get much darker than that.

Try the hardcover collection Misery Loves Comedy by Ivan Brunetti. It collects the first three issues of Schizo. Here's a link with some images of his gag comics which make up a fair portion of the book (warning: probably NSFW):

And if you like that kind of obscene, dark humor, you might want to also check out the books of Johnny Ryan. Another collection of his book Angry Youth Comix just came out entitled Johnny Ryan's XXX Scumbag Party.

Go to Amazon and it'll let you look at excerpts from the books. Funny stuff.

Thanks for these suggestions, haven't been able to track everything down.
I've been given the Boys a look, and so far I like... How horrible it be to have your love trappled by some superhero twats!

I also found some Unfunnies, and yes, it certainly is amoral!

I didn't even realize the Goons was in the same vain as Satan Sodomy Baby, figured thats why they had to release that title seperately.

Holy crap, I got threw the first 6 "The Boys", it's fucking brilliant!
Hahah, damn, you figure supes would be such damned sex fiends in the real world?
Frigging obscene!
The Unfunnies, meh... I read the first one, wasn't my pace.
Haven't had time to download any of the Goons, but I figure it'll just be a tame version of Satan's Sodomy Baby anyways, but I'll give it a look.
I'm loving Ennis even more now, I'd read some of his Max Punisher stuff, loved it, liked his hardcore Thor mini, how's his Preacher stuff? Or anything else you'd recommend?
