I just started reading the comics as well.

I wouldn't say they are necessarily darker. They are definitely more gruesome at points, and there are things in the comics that you wouldn't get a way with, except in the most R-rated of gore/grindhouse films.

The comics tend to move through certain things a little quicker. In some ways I find the way the show dwells on certain psychological issues to be darker.

Overall, I'd say the comics have more shock value, but the show is more of a mind $#$#.
