My choice would be "24 Hours" (Sandman, Vol. 2 #6):

[babyblob]

The Manga Goblin Slayer was pretty graphic.

[Ragged Maw]

Supergod by Warren Ellis.

[Captain Nostalgia]

Glenn Danzig's Verotika 1 (Featuring Grant Morrison on one of the stories)

It contains scenes of rape, murder, blood, mixing sex with angels and demons, plus golden showers.

er....not my thing....Danzig is a bit warped. I felt like I needed to take a shower to scrub it from my mind.

[Zauriel]

The Manga Goblin Slayer was pretty graphic.

I second that.

There are other manga as disturbing as Goblin Slayer. But one manga was particularly disturbing. The title is Uzumaki, a Japanese word for "spiral". It certainly gave me goosebumps

[DanMad1977]

Faust
EO

Comes to mind.

[OopsIdiditagain]

That's a lot of Garth Ennis comics.
10. I am not ok with this
9. Bastard
8. Nailbiter
7. The World Is Mine
6. Ichi the Killer
5. Fire punch
4. Anything by Oshimi Shuzo
3. Killing Stalking
2. No longer human
1. Goodnight Punpun - I haven't managed to finish this, it's not even that graphic compared to the comics above but the characters' ages make it hard to read.

I second that.

I couldn't finish Uzumaki, it's so nauseating.

[Jim Kelly]

FROM HELL was pretty disturbing. There was so much about the Ripper killings in that that I didn't know.

And also in the realm of documentary comic books, THE 9/11 REPORT by Sid Jacobson and Ernie Colón was disturbing. Then Jacobson and Colón did ANNE FRANK and left me in a deep dark hole of despair.

[Timothy Hunter]

My choice would be "24 Hours" (Sandman, Vol. 2 #6):

The most disturbing for me was the "Cereal" convention issue followed by Calliope.

[babyblob]

Superior Spiderman #4 where Massacre just kills that fast food restaurant full of people. Seeing the bodies just sit there. That was pretty graphic for me.

[DrNewGod]

My ick tolerance must be pretty low.

Personally, I found Manhunter's discovery pretty disturbing in Golden Age. IMO, spoilers:

the most frightening The Ultra-Humanite has ever been.

end of spoilers

[Jack Dracula]

Add Grant Morrisons Nameless as well as The Filth to the list.
There're also certain issues of The Impossibles where certain sadomasochistic fantasies of the Marquis De Sade are portrayed.

[Zauriel]

20 Dissolving Classroom
21 Uzumaki
22 Magician's Wife
23 Skreemer
24 Last American
25 The Drifting Classroom

.

Oh i noticed you did read Uzumaki. I also did read Drifting Classroom and Dissolving Classroom. Both are quite frightening to the bone.

[BeastieRunner]

Whatever the Alan Moore comic was where the lizard fish monster has a gang bang and then eats all the people during and after it. Except for the blonde woman.
