Neil Gaiman's The Sandman
Marjane Satrapi's Persepolis (awesome movie, too)
Art Spiegelman's Maus
Persepolis is the story of a girl who grows up in Iran. Maus narrates the relationship between the author and his father, a Nazi concentration camp survivor. Both stories are powerful and moving and shine at portraying their main characters.
There are a lot of things to like and dislike about The Sandman, a story that sometimes seems to become as endless as his protagonist. But nothing impressed me more than Death... What a wonderful character.
