[Groop] OT: The Eternals

I haven't read a 'graphic novel' for a number of years but a friend recently
recommended "The Eternals"  (Neil Gaiman and John Romita JR).  I thought the
artwork looked pretty good, threw my sensible middle aged comic apathy to
the wind and bought a copy.   This is the first comic (other than
back-issues of Groo) I can remember buying in a loooooooooong time and was
surprised to see a forward by ME. 

 

I've not long finished it - and found to my surprise that I really - REALLY
enjoyed it - I had forgotten just how satisfying this format can be !  In a
bit of a mad spree I unsealed my Elektra Assassin and Dark Knight Returns,
some of my old 2000AD stuff and even attempted to understand Stray Toasters
again.  Comics are back in my life and I have a hunger.

 

I have just bought Watchmen (somehow I never got around to this one and want
to read it before the film spoils it) and was wondering, whilst I have
re-gained some of my old excitement - what else is out there that should be
on my essentials list?
