Hmm....
I'm by no means an expert, but I do pick up the odd comic now and then (well, actually, more 'graphic novels').
Aside from lots already mentioned (dan clowes' stuff (esp. David Boring), watchmen, sandman, MAUS) I really like robert crumb (especially his one about blues musicians - i think called 'crumb draws the blues'), V for Vendetta, From Hell, American Splendor/Quitter.... Peanuts is always great, and you can pick up the little books pretty cheaply and easily from charity shops. I also recently read a comic called 'ripple' which was bizarre, and I don't really know what to make of it. Jeffrey Lewis' comic Guff/Fuff is uite good, but then I might only like it because I'm a big fan of his music. Who knows?
As for online comics I follow Achewood almost religiously, and occasionally look at the Perry Bible Fellowship, and Overcompensating.
I guess I would be more into it but for the expense and the fact that the people who work in comic shops are always really snooty with me and its a little soul destroying.
