25 Dark Humor Comics with Unexpected Twists by Dave Contra (New Pics)

Humor comes in many forms, and for Dave Contra, it takes shape in the realm of comic storytelling. He explores the depths of dark humor through his comic creations, crafting engaging narratives that delve into the darker aspects of life.

Dave’s journey into the world of humor comics began during the lockdown, inspired by his return from a surfing adventure and motivated by friends’ encouragement. Initially experimenting with multiple panels, he later settled on the succinct format of four-panel comics for efficiency.

Drawing on his eclectic background and a childhood filled with laughter, Dave infuses his dark humor comics with a unique perspective shaped by his experiences living in different countries. Despite abandoning drawing in his teens, his passion for storytelling found expression through film, leading him to film school and a career in video production. His cinematic sensibilities influence his approach to crafting comic narratives, treating each strip as a miniature film.

With a penchant for dry and dark humor, Dave’s comics reflect a somewhat pessimistic view of the world. Childhood favorites such as Calvin and Hobbes, The Far Side, and Michael Leunig laid the groundwork for his artistic style, while contemporary influences like @RoryBlank on Instagram continue to shape his comedic voice.
