It depends on what you mean by "a while"  There are some very good comics
currently being published although most of them lean more towards four color
action than watchmen-esque darkness.

He had been our Destroyer, the doer of things
We dreamed of doing but could not bring ourselves to do,
The fears of years, like a biting whip,
Had cut deep bloody grooves
Across our backs.

There's lots of good stuff out...the new Mage and Grendel books, the Alex Ross
stuff (any of it, definitely liked his latest, Uncle Sam), I've bought but
haven't yet read Kubuki which I hear is also quite good.
