Books, strips and internet.

The Arrival, Shaun Tan
Persepolis, Marjane Satrapi
The Little Prince, Joann Sfar
Peter and the Wolf, Miguelanxo Prado
Fever in Urbicand, François Schuiten and Benoît Peeters
The Calculus Affair, Hergé
Watchmen, Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons
80 Days, Nicolas Vadot and Olivier Guéret
Maus, Art Spiegelman
(lit. The Taste of Chlorine), Bastien Vivès

Comics are expensive and i live in a rural area so the library system isn't great, but i will look into your list. My library couldn't get The Arrvial, but they do have another of Tan's, Tales from Outer Suburbia.
