About comics, graphic novels and manga

Title of the thread pretty says everything so I have a few to add.

Starting with cyberpunk....
I have to confess that my Cyberpunk comic books and manga shelf is a bit empty. I can name all those I know, please feel free to refill it, I'll appreciate a lot.

-Blame!
-Biomega (more sci fi to be frank)
-Battle Angel Alita
-Akira
-Appleseed
-Ghost in The Shell
-The Tecnofather (never read it, I don't like Jodorwsky)
- Half of Moebius' work

NOTE: Title of the thread is intentionally "not" Cyberpunk comics and manga. Meaning that I'd like you to mentioned all those comics you think is worthy or need a memorable mention.

Amazing art and Storytelling is different but realistic and believable.

This comic taught me the importance of drawing realism.

My favourites are Druuna and Ranxerox. Both are adult orientated, dystopian scifi comics with kick ass quality of drawing too! They are in all realism the first comics ever I could say looked good. Other one that should be mentioned is Mercenary both for kick ass story but also for the fact that every frame/picture is an actual oil painting.

I like Druuna a lot, mainly because it's not manga. Also, because she's got one hell of an ass on her.

I'm a Marvel guy. Yeah, so sue me. Wolverine and Ghost Rider are my guys, although this new mutants story was awesome.

Other than that, I have a set of John Carters on my shelf.

Oh and of course Don Rosa as far as Duckburg goes. :)

Good taste! I'll check those out.

Ranxerox kinda reminds me of Batou. I wonder if Shirow got his look from there.

I had lots of comics at one time, but I only kept a few, after I had to sell half of my bookcase (nearly 1000 books...).
My favourites are:
Mouse (part I and II) by Art Spiegelman.
Indian Summer (is a Milo Manara/Hugo Pratt adaptation of the novel by Fenimore Cooper).
Some comics by Azpiri(Spanish writer/illlustrator), definetely adult oriented... :p
And the dearest to my heart:
PERRAMUS, by Breccia (It's an allegory/parody of the Military Dictatorship period in Argentina -1970s-. As Im sure it is not known I'll post a pic. of it.
