I’m sick of superheroes. What are some good non-cape books?

I loved transmetopolitan. Good writing and a great setting. In a future where a single city has grown so large it influences the entire world, "totally not" Hunter s. Thompson is a reporter exposing the dirty laundry of the people in power.
Noah Lopez
Cerebus
Stray Bullets
City of Glass
Hitman (tangentially capeshit)
From Hell
Sin City
If you only read one of these, make it Stray Bullets
Zachary Reyes
literally anything by vertigo or some weird avatar print stuff
Caleb Hall
Here's a thing I saved
Jack Ortiz
Jason
Carter Moore
Fables
Aiden Bennett
Pic not related. You go for better Vertigo titles like Sandman Mystery Theater or Swamp Thing or Hellblazer.
Michael Cruz
Preacher is good
Jaxson Adams
The goon.
Jace Roberts
It's Garth at his edgiest until the Boys dethroned it. His work is good when there's a tard wrangler to keep his ass in check, like in Hellblazer.
Aaron Garcia
The Boys is also good, just because it's edgy doesn't mean it's bad.
Cameron Brown
Just because its edgy doesn't mean its good.

Jonathan Morgan
He asked for non-capeshit
Liam Rodriguez
Do you see Swamp Thing wear a cape?
Wyatt Ward
And I wouldn't exactly call John Constantine a Superhero.
I think of that stuff as "Capeshit Adjacent".
And throwing a glance at my bookcase-
The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck(or just the Don Rosa Library collection, most of the stories are in volumes 4 and 5)
The Invisibles
Sunstone
Judas by Jeff Loveness
The Flintstones by Mark Russel
Gabriel Reed
I'd say it's good in spite of its edginess
William Russell
The Adventures of Luther Arkwright is great.
These are great too.
>If you only read one of these, make it Stray Bullets
That's funny, it's probably my least favorite of the bunch.
Jackson Nelson
John Wood
Hunter Barnes
Sir, this is not a capeshit thread
Blake Hernandez
David Williams
Josiah Jones
Lucas Flores
Xavier Carter
Henry Watson
So good but its such a shame the ending sucks and makes no sense.
The other 95% is excellent though.

>no McCrea to FRANK it up
Kayden Edwards
Luke Foster
Did McCrea ever work on Punisher max?
David Powell
Jack Ross
Owen Gray
I hated this. Went into it expecting something like Blood Meridian, but it was a disney adventure.
Connor Lopez
Jonathan Flores
Cooper Wilson
Didn't like the supernatural aspect?
Levi Lee
Jordan Cooper
Andrew Anderson
I knew what it was going to be. Just didn't like the style it was written, provided I only read the first two arcs before stopping. It was very much a standard adventure comic.
Nicholas Gomez
He did Marvel Knights Punisher.
Levi Nguyen
Brody Brown
lmao I just realized I was Steve Dillon not McCrea who did PunisherMAX.
Brayden Anderson
Jose Johnson
Caleb Howard
Parker Smith
