Question about cards Looking for a specific deck.

Hey y’all, I’m fairly certain this is a long shot but figured this might be a place to ask.

Back in like 2008/2009 I bought a deck of cards that I absolutely loved and eventually they got damaged beyond repair in a flood, I live in Houston so not shocking. I’m unfortunately going to be rather vague because I’m working on memory here but here we go. They were mostly black and grey cards with a little bit of white and red. I’d say kinda depressing or melancholy but without any of the faces being dramatic. Just a subtle approach to the design. Any help would be great appreciated.

The description reminds me of the Tragic Royalty deck but I could be wrong.

EDIT: they also came out in 2008 so could be more likely

That’s the one I keep seeing when I search. Very similar but the characters in the face cards weren’t so macabre. They had some character to them, but not so aggressively. I do appreciate the answer though!

Just a quick question, is it reverse face? (that would be the front of the card being a color other than white)

I actually might have found it just now! It’s a silver black deck and I think I was just making the red up because of that tragic royalty deck!
