The more comics I read, the more I realize I need to find some way to keep track. I end up in comic stores but forget what I intend to buy. So, here's a list. (I added the "creator" for some. Yes, I'm aware there's more than one. I don't feel like putting them all on there.)

1.) Watchmen (Moore)
2.) Blankets (Thompson)
3.) Carnet de Voyage (Thompson)
4.) Pride of Baghdad (B.K. Vaughan)
5.) Maus I & II (Art Spiegelman)

Or else my fist would be embedded in her face.
Wishlist/Things That Aren't Out Yet/Things I Havent Gotten Around To:
1.) Thessaly: Witch for Hire (Willingham) [rare]
2.) The Thessaliad (Willingham) [rare]
What did you mean by rare after these, and I can say that both books were good and the Witch for Hire is adorable! If you like Willingham, I would highly suggest his little talked about six issue series Proposition Player.
4.) Lost Girls [If only...]
I have only read the first book, but it came off as more tasteful than I thought it would. It is just so damn expensive.
5.) Loveless (Azzarello)
This series started out really well, but the pacing was odd and the sequences were oddly placed.
6.) Strange Girl (Remender)
I am a fan of Rememnder's work, but what I read of this series was very cute and fun and also contained beautiful art.
7.) The Last Christmas {Borrowing from Brian, I believe...)
A very funny light hearted book that is awesomely bad ass in a Remender kind of way.
8.) The Walking Dead (Ah, my list is so long...)
Quality read that gets a little stale at times, but is still a good read overall. The first six issues with Tony Moore's interior art are the best.
Some other books worth checking out:
the first six issues of Testament
Any Goon issues
any Brian Wood books, especially DMZ, Demo, Supermarket, Local and Channel Zero
Geoff Darrow's Shaolin Cowboy
Mike Brennan's Electric Girl
Ted Naifeh's Polly and the Pirates, Courtney Crumrin, Death Jr.
and any of the Minx line of books coming out this year of which I have only read The Plain Janes so far, but it was wonderful!
Oh yeah, my name is Brian and I am a comic/music/book/movie nerd.
