The early Stan Lee and Steve Ditko Spider-Man run, Stan Lee and Jack Kirby’s run on the Fantastic Four, anything written by Frank Miller that involves Daredevil, and Ed Brubaker, and Steve Epting’s Captain America run, particularly the “Winter Soldier” arc. For DC, I would go with the “Batman: Knightfall” arc, “Batman: Hush”, John Byrne’s Superman run, starting with his six issue “Man of Steel” miniseries, and “The New Teen Titans” from Marv Wolfman, and George Perez. For some independent books, I’d go with “TMNT: Return of the Shredder”, 1990s Spawn, Invincible, and “The Shadow: Year One.”
