If you've got any cool crime or mystery comics I would appreciate it

These requests are usually about non big two comics in general, so I decided fuck it, I'll go with that.

Astro City and Black Hammer are both very much superhero stories yes, but they have a singular vision and consistency behind them that big two stuff simply can't have.

Planetary's relation to its own superhero universe is so minor as to be pointless. I read it before knowing about the Authority. If not for one mention of Jenny Sparks and Century Babies, I wouldn't have known it's related to that material. As a love letter to ALL the weird fictions of the 20th century it's excellent.

Ex Machina is a partial piss take on superhero stuff yes, but it's so much more focused on the politics and related issues than Mitch's past as a superhero that the past material is ancillary.

Hell, if you want to bitch about including superhero stuff, Hellboy is inspired by a lot of the same material. A team of powered weirdos must protect the world. They have silly names.

Echo is for all intents and purposes, a superhero origin, especially since we know Julie goes on to use her powers to help the government. Should that be excluded?

Is Sweet Tooth superhero because it's an indie take on Kamandi, and Kamandi sometimes interacts with the broader DC?

The Unwritten has a few characters from comic books, is it superhero?

It's all pointless reductive to limit yourself too much. I understand wanting to see what's out there on the racks outside of Marvel and DC, but lets not go too narrow.

Fuck it, I'll recommend Invincible too.

Brubaker and Philip's Sleeper is set in the Wildstorm comic universe, but its crime, and an early major collaboration.

The GI Joe Cobra comics were great for that crime angle, though a lack of a satisfying ending means I'm ambivalent about recommending them.

Azzarello has done a fair amount of crime stuff like 100 Bullets. I haven't read it, but I've heard good things and it may be what you want.

Aside from the appearance of Superman’s costume, which may just be a Halloween get up, Kamandi only interacts with DC post Kirby, which is to say it doesn’t count.
Ok.

I figured it was mostly post Kirby, but I guess you get my point. That being too narrow is fucking stupid.

I hate genre. Good is good.

I really love Stray Bullets, but anything Lapham does is amazing

What's the elevator pitch on Stray Bullets? It came out in the 90s, right? Back when you had to be something special as an indie to thrive. I see it storytimed now and then, but I've never delved into it.

It's a bunch of crime stories that start off as standalone with a couple of connecting details but as the series goes on all the stories start to intersect until they all explosively collide. It's kind of like a cohen brothers movie in that it's a lot of people in bad situations making the exact wrong decision at every turn until something snaps. Lapham's art and writing is also extremely tight, there's not an ounce of fat or filler in the whole comic. I highly recommend it.

...That's a damn good elevator pitch.

I'm going to look into this earnestly, thank you.

Cerebus is the best comic ever made

I really liked Darwyn Cooke's adaptations of the Parker novels.

>That being too narrow is fucking stupid.
There are a fuckload of non-cape comics as well as non-superpower comics. Why not mention some of them? Dumb motherfucker.

Does Tintin count as a superhero? He doesn't have any super powers. He doesn't even wear a costume.

>Goodwin Star Wars
You a true G. You should read GI Joe vs Transformers. How is Myth of 8-Opus? I haven't gotten my hands on a copy yet.

I... did?
