Tarkin blowing up an entire planet as a demonstration is really dark when you think about it.

It’s from the High Republic, but the attack on the Republic fair on Valo and the fall of Starlight Beacon are pretty fucking dark. Honorable mentions go to the Battle of Jedha and the Night of Sorrow on Dalna.
haven't read the High Republic but sounds interesting.
Maybe it's just the art style in those comics, but they never felt as dark as some of the old Dark Horse stuff to me.

The entire Clone Wars. Two sides throwing disposable sentient troops with no choice as to whether to participate in the conflict at each other for years.
