Daniel Scully's Dark Humor Comics

Updated on October 2, 2025

I was alphabetizing the snack drawer (don’t judge) when a coworker DMed me dark humor comics by Daniel Scully, and suddenly my granola bar had existential questions. Daniel Scully’s panels hit like tiny trapdoors—one step, whoosh, laugh, think.

It’s peak cozy-season scrolling: Instagram carousels are serving bleak delights, r/webcomics is curating gems, and WEBTOON discovery keeps whispering “just one more.” Perfect terrain for webcomics, single panel comics, and a few dark humor memes that deliver sting without homework.

45 Dark Humor Comics For Night Owl Laughs

Now that you’ve toured Daniel Scully's hilariously twisted dark humor comics, you felt the cadence: plain setup, micro-pause, surgical turn. The best pieces keep panel timing tight—minimal words, maximum aftertaste—so you can send them to the group chat and still get invited to meetings. Save favorites under late-night scroll for tomorrow’s morale kit.

What travels is contrast. Gentle linework smuggles spicy truths; cute coffee cups negotiate with despair and win on a technicality. That’s why dark humor comics land across feeds: compact honesty with manners, office-safe laughs for timelines that prefer a wink over a wall of text.

Entities add texture without chores. A nod to WEBTOON pacing here, an Instagram carousel reveal there, a screenshot preserving the beat you can’t fake. Mix one visual eye-roll with one text snap and one rhythm gag so your set reads like editor’s picks, not static.

Aim stays kind—we’re roasting situations, not people. Bureaucracy, time, snacks, and the cosmic shrug get the heat; names do not. That keeps this batch portable from Slack to the family thread. Hydrate, breathe, let a neat caption do more work than a paragraph.

Curation tip: variety over volume. Pair a one-liner about “productivity with vibes” beside a quiet square where a calendar apologizes, then close with a polite apocalypse in four words. If your thumb smiles before your brain catches up, you nailed the mix.

If you want encore material that keeps the flavor fresh, I’m queuing three companions: I started with 20 Morbid Panels That Wink At Reality, detoured into 30 Single Panel Comics With Sharp Endings, and wrapped with 50 Depressing Memes You’ll Save For Later for the ride back to responsibility.
