Although Frank Miller produced the ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE movie adaptation, the comic series was created by Will Eisner. The comics spanned several series, collections and one shots over the years, with different writers and artists, catching up would be hard to do.
anyway, here are my personal favorites. at least what I can think of right now.
Pride of Baghdad
Usagi Yojimbo
Sandman
Runaways
We3
Persepolis
Road to Perdition series (including Purgatory, Paradise)
Laika
Asterix and Obelix (lol)
the others which are already mentioned by previous posts, are pretty good recommendations too.
I tend to avoid superhero comics, because I really have no idea where to start
The Asterix and Obelix series are an absolute classic! Grew up on em and they're the only comics that made me go digging around encyclopedias for the meanings of 'veni, vidi,vici', and generally stuff about the roman empire anyway, here are my personal favorites. at least what I can think of right now.
Pride of Baghdad
Usagi Yojimbo
Sandman
Runaways
We3
Persepolis
