i just realised: basically anything drawn by kevin o' neill, fuck yeah

 

probably the most overtly surreal, brutalist artist working for 2000ad in their fertile period:

 

(although not just 2000ad)

o' neill was always at his best when teamed with khaos magick expert pat mills

Although not originally a graphic novel, Scud: The Disposable Assassin can be bought in a one book anthology called The Whole Shebang.

 

Get it. Read it. Love it.

Ditto on:

 

Sandman - totally blew me on my ass when I read it and opened the door to "graphic novels" or whatever the fuck you want to call them. The art style changes, btw, so don't think that just on book is representative of the whole

 

Watchmen - classic

 

Arkham Asylum - Great writing + Great artwork. Can't go wrong

 

Others:

 

Transmetropolitan - If Hunter Thompson lived in the future

 

Heavy Ink - weird but good

 

Dave McKean's Cages - wonderfully surreal - guys got talent beyond just making amazing visuals

the first handful of hellboy books are amazing, if you dig poe and lovecraft, or are a fan of myths and legends.

Yes. They are pretty cool. Poe and Lovecraft. Mignola as well.

Grant Morrison is one of the greatest humans to ever touch earth's soil...

 

You should search out both volumes, mang. I think you'd like it, even if you aren't a huge Superman fan. He really got me interested in the character again. He takes the characters potential and runs with it. I love Quitely's style too. Which reminds me... We3 was a decent series too.
