Huh. Hadn’t really thought about this, but yeah, it’s easy to think of DC books that fit the bill & much harder for Marvel. Best I can come up with is the X-Men standalone story “God Loves, Man Kills.” Which is great but nowhere near Watchmen or Killing Joke in cultural prominence & influence.

Fellow oldsters may recall that “God Loves, Man Kills” first introduced William Stryker as a virulently anti-mutant fundamentalist televangelist. Stryker has since been a major antagonist in the X-Men movies, safely reimagined as a military mad scientist.
