40 New Comics With Unexpectedly Dark Twists By Dave Contra
Interview With Artist
Not everyone is a fan of dark humor, but well, if you are here already, perhaps you know what you are in for. Today we’d like to showcase some of the newest works by the talented comic artist Dave Contra, whose comics never cease to amaze us with both the creativity and the absurd scenarios that tend to get crazier each time.
In his last interview, Dave told us a little bit about himself.
"I have lived in several countries around the world, and had a great childhood. I used to catch snakes and boogie board. As a kid I loved drawing, but then I gave it up completely when I was a teenager. Later I became interested in film. I went to film school, and then worked in video production for a number of years, which I hated.
But I did get to travel around China filming a cooking show, which was cool. One thing I really notice now, when drawing comics, is that I think about 'camera shots' for the panels, as if the comic is a short film. I feel like having a background in film/video is a big help. Film language translates really well to comics."

I think absurdity might just be the key for these genius comics.

Once again BP labeling something that isn't dark humour as dark humour 🙄

I laughed at a handful of this. They are random and wacky. I feel the author was not even trying hard to offend anyone. Haha. I liked the dinosaur one, the Trex reaching for fruit in the tree : that shows you some people's 'gratutude'.

If you don't have a sense of humor don't comment on "dark comics". Read something else that is within your taste/grasp
