Re: Non-Superhero Comics?

The Brothers Hernandez: Love and Rockets. The Palomar series alone is one of the great works of sequential storytelling.

Allison Bechdel: Dykes to Watch Out For and Fun Home.

Osamu Tezuka: Buddha. Fictionalized life and times of Siddhartha Gautama by the father of both anime and manga.

Bill Watterson: Calvin and Hobbes.

Marjane Satrapi: Persepolis.

Jean "Moebius" Giraud: A lot of weird science fiction and cowboy stuff.

Art Spiegelman: Maus. Pretty much the first graphic novel to get serious literary attention.

Lynda Barry: Ernie Pook's Comeek and autobiographical work. Some heavy stuff about abuse and poverty.

Peter Kuiper: Metamorphosis, and he's been in charge of Spy vs. Spy since '97. Nice work, unique style.


Need to get off my ass to read:

Will Eisner's long work, since he's credited with creating the English-language graphic novel. (Tezuka arguably was parallel in Japan. There probably were similar works happening in other languages.)

More European work including Tintin and Astrix.
