What are some good /lit/ approved comics?

So far I've only read Maus and really liked it.

Derp, thank you. I'm not too up on foreign non-Britwave authors.

Let's add James Stokoe to that list. His books are worth more than their price in art alone.

Mark Millar's run on The Authority is outstanding.

Planetary by Warren Ellis is also stand out.
