Daniel Clowes' "David Boring", IMO his best work to date.

First and foremost, Neil Gaiman's Sandman series. Really, pick up the first volume.. and then I dare you to stop reading.
Everything Warren Ellis touches generally turns to gold, but I especially loved his Transmetropolitan series. Science fiction, anarchy, general badassery.. fantastic all around.
Ghost World has been mentioned, and while I liked that, I thought David Boring was a superior work from Clowes.
Just picked up The Unwritten, a new series by Mike Carey. After finishing the first volume, it looks pretty promising.
Demo was dark and angsty, but in a good way.
Marvel 1602 was a really interesting take on superheroes.. and again, penned by Gaiman. He fucking rules. Oh, and another Gaiman favourite of mine: Books of Magic.. Gaiman knows the right way to write John Constantine.

Edit: Also, you might want to give manga (asian graphic novels) a try! Good ones to get started with are Death Note and Bleach. I also liked xxxHolic (though I never finished the series), and the anime film for Akira was amazing so I can only imagine that the manga would be just as good -- if not better!

If you you've already read Ghost World (and if you haven't, you should) Check out David Boring . It's one of his darker and and more satfisfying pieces. His earlier stuff is neat, but it's got a fever dream quality that can be a challenging read. Wilson, Mr. Wonderful, and Pussy! are dark and funny, but not quite as cerebral.
