Grant Morrison's "Arkham Asylum: A Serious House On Serious Earth".
Every panel is a blend of painting, collage, and ink drawings and Morrison's exploration of various mystic ideas, including the symbiosis between Batman and the criminals he captured and recaptured. Unlike a lot of graphic novels, Morrison uses symbolism that includes the works of Lewis Carroll, the Christian Mystery Plays, the psychology of Carl Jung and the works of Joseph Campbell.
Normally I hate graphic novels, but this thing is just amazing.
EDIT: And David Wondrich's Stomp and Swerve.
