One characteristic is the subversion of expectations. They take familiar concepts, like superheroes in 'Watchmen', and turn them on their heads, creating a sense of dark amusement. Dark humor graphic novels also tend to have a gritty or edgy art style that complements the tone. For instance, the noir - like art in 'Sin City' enhances the dark and humorous elements of the stories. And they often use sarcasm and black comedy to make a point, whether it's about society, politics or human nature, like in 'Transmetropolitan' where the main character's cynical rants are full of dark humor.

One great example is 'Watchmen' by Alan Moore. It has a dark and complex narrative with elements of dark humor. The characters are morally ambiguous, and the satirical take on superheroes adds to the darkly humorous tone. Another is 'Preacher' which is filled with dark, irreverent humor as it follows a preacher with strange powers on a wild journey through a world full of corruption and odd characters. Then there's 'The Boys' which is a brutal and darkly humorous take on the superhero genre, showing the seedy underbelly of so - called heroes.
