Question: Dark webcomic

I'm looking for an online comic that uses photos as the background, three panels, with words over the top. The sense of humor is very dark, slightly sick, and I seem to remember the author either having another web comic, or a spouse with one.

Is it this? I only knew of it because it was parodied by xkcd.

Yeah, "A Softer World" sounds like the one. As for another comic or spouse with one, could you be conflating it with the "Toothpaste for Dinner"/"Natalie Dee"/"Married to the Sea" web comics power couple?

Yep, it's "A Softer world", and I am probably confusing it with the toothpaste for dinner couple. Ta muchly.

I hope you didn't think I was implying it was a bad comic or anything. I just wasn't familiar with it. This one is really funny. This one is damn powerful.

There's also Three Panel Soul, by the pair who used to do Mac Hall—more rotoscope than straight photo backdrop, however, and it sounds like "A Softer World" was the ticket.
