Criminal is a solid comic

You already said blacknight so I think you're set.

[edit]

Kudos on The walking dead :O

B.P.R.D.
Daredevil Frank Miller Run. It's in 3 trade paper backs or 1 HUGE hard cover.
Northlanders
Hellblazer
Kickback(hardcover)
Mouseguard

If you like Sandman, I would suggest Saga of The Swamp Thing by Alan Moore, they are new collections.(better quality paper).

I did not say that I refuse to read manga. I'm trying to limit the recommendations to what I'm actually looking for.

Really are missing out if you don't want manga

Hellblazer's quality jumps all over the place with all the different writers it's had over the years (especially that godawful woman writer ), but it's still a good read because it's John Constantine yo. The start is good though, with Delano and then Garth Ennis.

Since you've read the Sandman, the spinoffs that he himself wrote (aka Death, Dream Hunters, etc) are also a good read. Of the spinoffs by other authors, I'd only really recommend The Dreaming, which focuses a lot on the secondary characters (more Corinthian!). Lucifer by Mike Carey is decent but it doesn't measure up to Sandman.

Transmetropolitan is a good read, by Warren Ellis, with the main character being heavily based on Hunter S Thompson. I'd also recommend Nextwave, and Planetary (which just recently finished) by him, both kind of superherosey comics but funny.

Watchmen by Alan Moore, if you haven't read it, although that's a bit obvious one. Much better than the movie.

For people suggesting The Boys: I'd read Preacher first since that's actually complete.

Powers by B. Bendis is a pretty good series.

It's sort of in the superhero deconstruction mode inspired by Watchmen. It's about some detectives who are in the division of the police department that investigate crimes regarding people with superpowers. Has that gritty noir movie feel to it.

It shines mostly because the plot and writing is very good, but I also like it because unlike a lot of superhero deconstruction series, it doesn't really go all the way with breaking it down, so people can still have a little bit of fun with the absurdness of comicbook heroes.
