A very long list that I believe is full of gems:
Preacher, Volume 1 by Ennis
Sandman: Preludes and Nocturnes by Gaiman
Invincible: Family Matters by Kirkman
Southern Bastards
Kingdom Come
Marvels
Watchmen
Saga
Mind MGMT
Daredevil: The Man Without Fear
Batman: The Long Halloween
Pride of Baghdad
All Star Superman
The Walking Dead: Days Gone Bye
Thor: God of Thunder
Annihilation (read it digitally on Marvel Unlimited, finding it in print is costly)
Fantastic Four by Jonathan Hickman, Volume 1 (by far, my favorite take on the characters. Hickman writes them to perfection.)
Spider-Man: Kraven's Last Hunt
oooo, this made me think of one of my favorite graphic novels; I think, other than JTHM,. it's one of the first ones I've ever read...
Pride Of Baghdad by Brian Vaughan; beautiful story about a pride of lions that escapes from the Baghdad zoo during the Operation Iraqi Freedom; great story, but it has a bit of a sad ending. Nonetheless, I highly recommend it :-D
Pride of Baghdad
Y: The Last Man is a really well written read. Most people go immediately towards the Sandman series by Neil Gaiman (which is a great choice also) or Watchmen (Alan Moore) because they have received a ton of awards and are known in literary communities. Of those two Watchmen would probably be most book club friendly. I love Gaiman but holy wow it takes a very long time to get through that series. If you would like to read something by Brian K Vaughn that is a single book is Pride of Baghdad. It is really politically topical and heart wrenching. Y is less so but is a multi-book series so yeah.
Pride of Baghdad by Brian K Vaughn - A really beautiful story about the real-life escape of a lion pride from the Baghdad zoo during the 2003 American military bombings. Whenever someone tells me they don't understand people who read comics, I try to get them to read this. It's only 1 volume, can be read in one sitting, and reasonably priced (Amazon sells the paperback for $9.35).
