Reddit reviews Memetic

I've got a few recommendations for ya.

First off is, Memetic by James Tynion IV and Eryk Donovan. The story about an apocalyptic meme. Yes, a meme. May sound silly, but it does a good job of presenting a familiar, yet incomprehensible horror that immediately throws the world into chaos. Also, there's a good amount of gore and violence that any respectable apocalyptic story should have.

Next, Nameless by Grant Morrison and Chris Burnham. It's about an occult expert and a group of scientists trying to prevent a planet-killing asteroid from destroying Earth. Admittedly, this series is confusing and sporadic as hell. Its story likes to jump back and forth, and seems to operate under the aspect that there's a story that came prior, but I don't think there is. Its got gratuitous violence and madness inducing cosmological horror.

Last, but certainly not least, the works of the infamous Junji Ito. Junji Ito's style of horror is of the abstract kind that offers virtually no explanation ever. They can be simple stories, but typically utilize interesting, unexpected concepts. Notable works include: Uzumaki, the Enigma of Amigara Fault, Army of One, Hanging Balloons, Long Dream, and plenty others. Aside from his unorthodox concepts of horror, his incredible art style creates an atmosphere of unease and surrealism. You can actually find most, if not all, of his works translated online. I found that many of his older comics are out of print and being sold at exorbitant prices.

I'd say the most similar thing about these recommendations to the Southern Reach trilogy are their stories of mankind coming into contact with something that is completely beyond us, and unstoppable in its course. Meh. Enjoy.
