Hrm. Let's talk about Graphic Novels in this thread since most of threads for individual titles don't get much attention anyway.
So far I've read Y - The Last Man, Watchmen, and a few others. I haven't read that many because I was into manga first.
I'm currently halfway through the Sandman series. Very interesting, well written stuff.
Anything else you guys can recommend?

Fable. Good stuff.
I have around 5 gigs of stuff that's waiting to be read, but I stubbornly refuse to open the files until I have a real life hard copy (except for the really hard to find/complete stuff). Spend on your vices as they say, even though they're wallet-busting expensive.
The really famous ones I've read:
The Killing Joke
Stardust
V for Vendetta
Watchmen
Collecting:
Fable
Sandman
Wormwood: Gentleman Corpse
Wants:
Hush
League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
Y - The Last Man

Not sure if this should be here, but....
I Just finished Trese, a Filipino graphic novel series (currently at book 4)

Think american gods mixed with hellsing using Filipino folklore as the monsters. Nothing too special, but it's a funky step for Filipino comics.

I remember reading Wasted for the filipino books. There's not much else back then. A lot of creators were adopting manga style and it'sa bit of a turn off.

Kingdom Come

Saw a copy of the Marvel adaptation of Electric Ant in Book Sale for just P350 some time ago. Should've bought it. =/

I was reading the first couple volumes of Empowered back in 2010. Didn't go for the further ones since it wasn't that interesting by the end. Last two books that i read this year were Damnation Crusade and Lone Wolves, both from the Black Library.
I still have my old copy of The Death of Superman here, circa 1994. Cover's pretty badly beaten up though.
