The closest I can think of right now is "They live". The good guys win, but die doing so.
One that comes to mind is the one-shot graphic novel "Earth 2." Part of the story takes place on Earth in the Anti-Matter Universe. The operating logic in the Anti-Matter Universe is that evil always wins. At the request of Lex Luthor (from the Anti-Matter Universe), the Justice League travels to that universe to try and overthrow the Crime Syndicate (their Anti-Matter Universe counterparts) and to help the people there, but their efforts are doomed to failure.
