4. Hitman

Enjoying Preacher? Did you know series co-creator Garth Ennis also wrote a longrunning DC Comics series? The darkest, funniest DC Comic I’ve ever read, and with one hell of a lot of heart to it as well.

Hitman is the story of Tommy Monaghan, a Gotham City Hitman living in The Cauldron, the worst neighborhood in Gotham. After an alien invasion, Tommy is left with incredible superpowers that he for the most part refuses to use. The series follows Tommy and his friends as they fulfill contracts and get into trouble in Gotham in some hilarious and heartfelt hijinks.

The first half of the series is fun and laugh out loud funny, while the latter half becomes a darker look at the life of a contract killer and the end that most assuredly awaits our cast. It’s charming and brutal and heartbreaking and hilarious.

Plus, it features the Dogwelder. Whose power is that he has the ability to WELD DOGS TO PEOPLE. That’s amazing.
