| I'm pretty terrible at keeping up with comics. Just a few months ago I finally got around to reading Blankets (graphic novel...comics...close enough) and enjoyed it thoroughly. What might you toss in the direction of someone looking for a good sampling of what's out there? |

| Aw, man I loved blankets. And the best part about that book if you are on a tight budget you can usually find it in your local library. |

Blankets is definitely good. A friend lent it to me once.
I love comics, but I'm very bad at keeping up with them. I sort of pick them up when the fancy strikes me. I very much enjoy the work of Doug Tennapel, so I was really impressed with his recent Ghostopolis. Calvin and Hobbes is probably my favorite ever, and can always bring me up after a bad day (although I'm not sure that counts in this topic... are we talking about longer stories or do strips work?).
More recently I read Chew. I've been picking up the collected editions to save some cash from getting it monthly. It's got a really cool mystery story, which I love, and the sci fi element is simultaneously hilarious, gross and unexpected. It pays off in major ways almost every issue.
The New 52 Batman is pretty good. The writing on it is great, and I pick it up every month from my local shop. On a few lighter notes I also have been getting the Megaman and Sonic comics from Archie for a long time, and the new Ninja Turtles stories from IDW more recently are freaking great. My comic guy saves me variants every once in a while. It's a strain on the pocketbook, but he knows what I like  |
