The Barry Windsor-Smith drawn Weapon-X comic is just really visually fantastic. It’s ominous and gritty while having some action scenes that show how scary it is to be on Logan’s bad side.
I like all the classic Hellboy volumes. I was obsessed trying to copy Mike Mignola’s art style for a while. His use of kind of abstracted shapes and be heavy scraggles combined with letting character shapes flow in and out of background darkness is wonderful.
SCUD The Disposable Assassin is basically if you turned ska music into a comic. It’s fun and absurd.
Watchmen. Because it’s Watchmen.
Barkley vs Godzilla has Charles Barkley playing basketball against Godzilla.

Well, that’s going on my must-read list. Thank you.
Groo the Wanderer was my favorite and Sergio Aragones’ drawings had so many Easter eggs hidden in them. Too much fun.
I also loved the original Secret Wars. I was a DC kid, but Secret Wars blew my mind.
More modern, I really liked the Matt Fraction run of Hawkeye.
Oh man I have a mint Groo #1 baby!
Loved Sergio A. (don’t want to butcher his last name) from MAD.
Swamp Thing (mostly the Woodrue saga) was brilliantly written and terribly sad at the time. I still have a single, very beat up copy of this one.

I know this is weird, considering it’s place in comics history, but I think TinTin is now underrated. I don’t hear about it much outside of comics history nerds, and it really holds up as a fun read.
Edit: Favorite super hero comic is a tough call.
Probably Hickman’s “Solve Everything” run of Fantastic Four.
Runner ups: Mark Waid’s “Dead Heat” run of The Flash, and Fabien Nicienz’ Cable & Deadpool.
My wife is a big TinTin fan. You might be onto something there.
Favorite superhero is Supergirl. Favorite comic is Hellblazer
Magnus: Robot Fighter, specifically the Russ Manning issues:
