Thanks for the links, by the way. I'll probably end up buying a few of them.

Those shorts pack a lot of plot in just a few pages. And on top of that, the trend was to explain everything with a rational twist. The first one I tried involved young couples being shot and killed on Lover's Lane, and some missing teens as well. The police decided there was a rash of suicide pacts and kids running off to the big city.
Never mind that there was a doctor (and candidate) in town who had been experimenting on the aging process. Ah, but what you think is going on... isn't. Meanwhile, our hero is a news photographer in love with a girl reporter.
I'm going to try the Spider next. Those look cool. Even if the Spider had one of the strangest costumes I've ever heard of...
