Midnight Nation is a religious-themed twelve-issue American comic book limited series, created by J. Michael Straczynski and published from 2000 to 2002 by Top Cow Productions under their now defunct Joe's Comics imprint. It is about a man who is killed, in a sense, and is on a journey to save his soul.Detective David Grey is a dedicated, workaholic member of the LAPD. He's often successful too, in part because of the fact that he has practically nothing else in his life besides police work, in part because he's one of the few members of the force that actually cares about what's going on, even if the victim he is investigating is black, a drug dealer, or whatever. On his latest case he gets some mysterious hints that the case is more than it appears to be, and that the victim, Toby, was killed by some mystery faction that spooks even the veteran street criminals.Within hours the informant has been brutally murdered, leaving only his initial hints to go on. From those hints David manages to track down Arlan Jaeker, a career criminal, and takes a police unit to arrest him. He finds Jaeker surrounded by the demonic, bloodthirsty entities known as the Walkers, who literally tear the police unit with David apart. David manages to shoot Jaeker, but is helpless against the Walkers themselves. Then the leader of the Walkers does something to David, and he begins to pass out...... then wakes up in a strange limbo world, where he can see people as ghostly figures, but they cannot see him and pass right through him. At first, the only person he finds that can see him is a tall, strange woman who calls herself Laurel, who says she will be his guide, either until the Walkers find him and kill him, or until he turns into one of them, in which case Laurel will kill him. David soon finds that the only things he can interact with successfully are things which have been lost, abandoned, broken, or thrown away, and similarly the only people who can talk to or see him are the same way.Eventually, Laurel tells David that his soul was taken by the leader of the Walkers, and at most David has less than a year before the loss of it turns him into one of the Walkers. So with Laurel leading the way, David sets out on a cross-America trip to New York to reclaim his soul while slowly learning more about the Walkers (and fighting them at every step), lost things and people, and the nature of the Balance Between Good and Evil in this universe. Not everything is as simple as it seems, however, and reclaiming his soul will be more complicated than simply walking to New York and taking it back.

Hurricane of Puns: David is horrified to realize that the murdered informant's body parts have been scattered all over his house in order to create this. For example, an arm stuck on a chair, (armchair) a head stuck in the refrigerator (head cold) etc.

comment
Cursed with Awesome: David in the Distant Finale. He's soulless, but it mostly just means he can't properly die and move on, meaning he's functionally immortal and can interact with both worlds. He chooses to use this "cursed" state to help people on both sides of the divide, bringing lost people back to the world.

Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism: Very, very cynical overall, but mostly to give some extra punch to the more hopeful ending. Satan fairly drips with cynicism while preaching his own twistedly hopeful message of hopelessness.

Place Worse Than Death
 Midnight Nation (Comic Book) / int_4fdd0d29
comment
Place Worse Than Death: New York City, apparently. At least due to the influence of Satan and the Walkers. At some points it looks suspiciously like Fire and Brimstone Hell. It is, according to Laurel, actually the only place in the world where the "sides" are flipped - all the normal people refuse to see it for what it is, so they force themselves into the shadow-world to see New York as they want to see it. Meanwhile, all the lost people are in the real New York, because they can't help but see it as it actually is - a literal Hell on Earth because Satan's influence is so strong there.

Satan Is Good

comment
Satan Is Good: Sort of. Here, he's pretty much the first Well-Intentioned Extremist crossed with Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds, seeking to undo creation in order to end needless human suffering, and because God has refused to allow any criticism of it. Still, Satan has pretty much Jumped Off The Slippery Slope because his methods go far, far beyond "well-intentioned" by this point.

Meaningful Name: The one who will tip the balance between good and evil is named Grey. What could that signify? For that matter, David, while certainly a common name, could be meant to evoke the Biblical King David. The Walkers. They're all people who have gone on the "long walk" with angels like Laurel to New York City in search of their stolen souls.

Super-Sargasso Sea
 Midnight Nation (Comic Book) / int_b6ab6668
comment
Super-Sargasso Sea: The "Place In-Between." Notably, not just lost objects end up here, but lost people. An odd element is that the normal world can occasionally be seen from the PIB, and people there can see things that aren't lost or discarded, they just can't interact with them. The side story "Precious Objects" is about a house where inspiring creations that were never made (because their creators had their lives cut short) end up: Van Gogh's paintings, music by The Big Bopper, JFK's second inaugural speech, and more. The Walkers want to destroy it all because they are a source of hope.

He's also one of the first to come back to the world, regaining his hope at the sight of Laurel's ensoulment flaring like a beacon across the world and just dropping back into reality as a result.

Sadistic Choice: David's choice comes down to reclaiming his soul (but becoming part of the Walkers in doing so) or giving it up, letting Laurel have it so she can live a mortal life, (but David will, they think, remain in limbo forever). Ultimately, the story isn't about the choice between good and evil, but between whether to sacrifice yourself for someone else's sake or sacrificing another for your benefit.

comment
The Soulless: Walkers. Averted, because it turns out the Walkers all took their souls back when offered. It's because they chose themselves over giving the soul up for someone else that they became Walkers, because what they let go of was their humanity and so became Satan's willing servants. It turns out losing your soul just makes you potentially immortal and able to interact with both worlds at once.

comment
Dark and Troubled Past: Most of the Lost People seem to have either this, or some version of Break the Cutie or Broken Bird. Of course, there's also a strong implication that for nearly all of them that tell their story, (aside from Arthur) that they could have made different choices and changed their lives but didn't.
