I'd echo most of the recommendations, but want to add Warren Ellis, who
has a lot of really fine stuff out there. The ten volumes of
Transmetropolitan (a Hunter S Thompson type in a future city & US) are
great fun. And I especially think that his Planetary series is amazing,
a something to ran with the best of Moore & Gaiman (whose 10 volumes +
of Sandman are to me one of he great works of the past 20 years or so).

Perhaps, after all,
there is no polite way to withdraw
from the privilege of the first person.
