Don't read a lot of monthly comics right now, mostly the collections and such. Some webcomics too. Split Lip by Sam Costello and my own western/horror comic Strangeways come to mind immediately.
Other stuff I read regularly. Hellboy, though I'm not as fond of it as I once was. The Goon, still strong, but I'm switching to trades as of this arc. BPRD, Guy Davis is tops in my book, and the writing is sharp. The Zombies That Ate the World, picked up the first issue as a taster and will wait out for the collection (or pick up the issues cheap). More Guy Davis goodness and a biting sense of humor to match. Age of Bronze, not horror in the slightest, but a really great historical comic about the Trojan War by the unparalleled Eric Shanower. Lone Wolf and Cub, only the best samurai manga ever. Most any Grant Morrison-written comic. Again, not horror, often superhero action, but he does it well (mostly) and offers up plenty of thought-provoking ideas along with the plot. Didn't care for his recent big event comic, though. Getting into the Creepy/Eerie archives and a lot more period horror in general. Reading a lot of Alex Toth comics to learn what I can from his minimalist storytelling style and how he approaches a page. They're also damn good, by and large. Hope that helps you out. I really should repost this to the comics forum as well. Recommendations are always welcome (but keep in mind that I gave up on THE WALKING DEAD a long, long time ago and don't see myself coming back to it.)
