I dislike ranking books, but here is a constellation of work that were formative, groundbreaking, or works of lasting literature.

Only reason I did not vote for a few more is I have not read them. Definitely picking some of these up in the near future.
need to add the old boy series and vagabond series by inoue and the arrival by shaun tan - none of them turns up in a search.
I thought persepolis made a much better film than graphic novel. Understanding comics was a lot of academic hooey and bogus sweeping statements.
If anyone intends to read Killing joke get the new, re-coloured edition. John Higgins really sucks.

You really might consider adding Paolo Eleuteri Serpieri’s Druuna graphic novels. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Druuna
They are quite good.
