Beyond The Black Freighter

In the Watchmenverse, the comics on sale are about pirates, not superheroes; masked vigilantes aren't escapism, they're news. Possibly there is nevertheless a comic out there about the adventures of Ozymandias, as produced by Veidt Publishing. Presumably, that means that the Watchmenverse also has comics about ninjas, cowboys, soldiers and so on.

Which leads me to wonder; which of the comics we know from our world would have Watchmenverse equivalents? 2000AD, perhaps? It's a sci-fi comic rather than a superhero title. Maybe in the Watchmenverse Judge Dredd is something of a vicious satire of the Comedian. Maybe the Comedian has beaten John Wagner up over it. Possibly there's even a talented young writer called Alan doing Future Shocks (or is that far too meta?)
