Hellblazer is usually worth a look. I find the early stuff (up until Ennis left) to be a bit more satisfying in terms of pacing and structure. They American era that Azzarello wrote are pretty good, but it often gets bogged down in the "Look how fucked up Americans are!" motif. Mike Carey's work with it over the last few years is well put together and Frusin's art is great, but its a little bit more plot based than the series requires. And Denise Mina's current run has been really good so far as well.

I'll also second Ex Machina which has a nice take on the super-hero genre in general, and recommend Fear Agent which is kind of an Army of Darkness in space kind of thing, and the Fraction/Sanders one shot trade The Five Fists of Science which at its most basic description boils down to: Its The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen without Alan Moore's "Lol, I'm God. Look what I can do." mentality. All three are definitely worth looking at, especially if you ain't payin' for them.

I heard Mike Allred's Madman was pretty good, anyone care to verify this?

Is that all the Druuna? I have not gotten to read it yet (last week of the quarter here at college, I'm busy as fuck) but I cannot wait to.

Yeah, that's pretty much it. There are some sketchbooks as well, but they're not particularly interesting.

Druuna is great. But you did not have to upload all of those, as they are readily available on Demonoid and a quite fast d/l at that. Thanks none the less.
I also have the game, though it is lackluster I may make it available at request.
There are no 'knowns'. There are thing we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say there are things that we now know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don't know we don't know. So when we do the best we can and we pull all this information together, and we then say well that's basically what we see as the situation, that is really only the known knowns and the known unknowns. And each year, we discover a few more of those unknown unknowns.

I've looked it up on Demonoid in the past and there was nothing except some cards? It must be a recent post mangrish.

If you consider one month to be "recent", then yes, it is.

Yes, I do, considering the last time I looked it up it was not there?

What are you getting at?

Yep, that's the one I used. Could probably just have linked to the torrent now that I think about it, but it's not as though upping the files to Mediafire was a hassle, so it's all good. B)
