Nimona by Noelle Stevenson
I knew Stevenson's work with the Lumberjanes, but Nimona is a deeper and more involved story. Set in a kind of science-fantasy world, it starts as a tongue in cheek "shapeshifter teenage girl joins (not so) evil mastermind" story, but it quickly becomes something more. A story about oppression and love, about how far anger can take you. Like many webcomics turned comics, there's a shift in tone gradually as a serial becomes a story, but it's for the better in this case. Great stuff.
