My comic book background is significantly wider and deeper than even my horror background. I'll give you a few personal favorites that haven't already been mentioned.

Preacher by Garth Ennius and Steve Dillon. Definitely showing some age regarding certain themes but still one of the best runs of comics ever. Hilarious and irreverent.

The Dark Phoenix Saga by Chris Claremont and John Byrne. One of the most famous comics storylines of all time, probably the single greatest arc in the history of the X-Men (and that's saying something.)

Afterlife with Archie by Robert Aguirre-Sacasa. More serious take on the Riverdale gang by way of The Walking Dead. Sabrina is a badass witch forced into a marriage with Cthulhu. Jughead becomes a flesh eating zombie. Only critique is after the first arc new issues have been comi out at a snails pace.

Bone by Jeff Smith. Seems almost Disneyish at first glance before you realize it is a smart, witty, fantasy adventure story.

I've got loads more if you're interested.
