Casanova by Matt Fraction, really mind-blowing stuff. If you can track them down, I highly recommend getting the individual issues instead of the trade, in the back of every issue he writes 5 or 6 pages, explaining some of the more obscure references in the issue, what was going on in his head when he was writing it, what song you're supposed to be listening to while reading it, etc. Really adds to the experience.
Fables continues to be excellent, and Jack of Fables is just as good IMO (although I know some people can't stand the character Jack so they can't get into it).
Omega the Unknown miniseries by regular book author Jonathan Lethem, if you can deal with stuff that's rather idiosyncratic, was really cool.
For regular superhero books, I'd say Grant Morrison's All Star Superman is the best thing going, and check out Immortal Iron Fist.
