My friend J. sent me this link to a list of 20 Comics that the folks over at Nerve think can change your life. Whether they can or not, the list seemed a good place to start if I wanted to dive into the world of comic books.

1. Alias by Brian Michael Bendis and Michael Gaydos
2. Preacher by Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon
3. "Bomb Scare," Optic Nerve #8 by Adrian Tomine
4. Hate by Peter Bagge
5. Transmetropolitan by Warren Ellis
6. Heavy Liquid/100% by Paul Pope
7. Diary of a Teenage Girl by Phoebe Gloeckner
8. Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi
9. Blue Monday by Chynna Clugston
10. Fun Home: A Family Tragicomic by Alison Bechdel
11. Like a Velvet Glove Cast in Iron by Daniel Clowes
12. Fortune and Glory by Brian Michael Bendis
13. Kabuki by David Mack
14. Love and Rockets by Los Bros Hernandez
15. Sandman by Neil Gaiman, et. al.
16. Miracleman by Alan Moore and Neil Gaiman, et al.
17. Zippy the Pinhead by Bill Griffith
18. Usagi Yojimbo by Stan Sakai
19. Fantastic Four Issues #1-#102 by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby
20. Planetary by Warren Ellis
Most of the list (aside from Zippy) seem like something that would intruige me. Plus the library has at least half of them in their collection. But so far I have only read a few.
