I can second Transmet. Scott Pilgrim as well, but partially because it's a 4 volume story and once you've read the first you have to read the rest, just to see him go after all the ex-boyfriends.

Absolutely fucking crazy Frenchman and girl who rips peoples faces off included. It's pretty great!

issue 11 just came out, beginning of the russia story arc, so excited for this series.
also, Preacher by Garth Ennis and Sandman by Neil Gaiman. Those are really the two biggest recommendations I can think of.

Exit Wounds by Rutu Modan
Lines:
Since it was brought up earlier, the only difference I thought between a comic book and a graphic novel as that novels tend to only be one thing, while comic books were part of a series. Graphic novels were also longer. I dunno.
One that wasn't listed that I happen to enjoy - Frank Miller's Batman: Dark Knight Returns. I like Miller's work in general, but I really like the artwork and the storyline in this comic. (Followups are The Dark Knight Strikes Again and Holy Terror Batman!)
Others:
Kabuki
Grimm Fairy Tales
Fables
Ghost World
anything written by Neil Gaiman
