There a lot of comics that go way further capes and trunks over trousers !

Hellblazer : film noir + horror and a "hero" that often loses and ends up killing his friends/lovers
Gotham Central : ordinary police in a crazy world with a supervillain from time to time
The empty man, Bruning Fields, Locke and Key : only ordinary powerless humans VS evil
The Unwritten : the son of a writer triggers supernatural events in places linked to famous novels.

An so on and so forth... I would not say that the horror genre is just about slasher movies ;) so comics are not only about Superman and Avengers.

(Did not even mention the hero deconstruction in Watchmen or the works of Eisner, Crumley etc.)
