What are the highest artistic achievements in the medium of comics?

Thankfully comics hasn't been infected by the kind of pretentiousness that other mediums have, so hopefully we never find out.

Right now we are free to enjoy whatever we like and can discuss the merits of (almost) anything on equal grounds. It feels pretty good knowing that you and your kind will never be welcome. The inaccessibility of comics has acted as a fantastic pleb filter for the last 30 years and I hope we have 30 more.

Here, have a half-joking image.

Serious answer though: Dave Sim's Cerebus the Aardvark is the highest artistic achievement in the medium of comics.

I can tell two things about you from this post. One, you are a Christian. Two, you have had substance abuse problems in the past. Considering these facts, you hardly have any room to call others dumbasses.

SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU FUCKING FAGGOT

I'm fucking tired of you shitheads not listening to me. I'm tired of your "opinions". You're fucking peasants and I know what's best for you. God I fucking hate mongrels.

Do I even ask that much of you? No. All I ask is that you obey SIMPLE orders and keep your mouth SHUT. But here you are, begging to be noticed by your king. Well you've got my attention now, and you better start BEGGING to lose it. You aren't walking out of here alive without my permission.

"artistic achievement" eventually comes down to subjectivity after the technicals are sorted out. this whole thread maybe a bait thread

that said I'll throw in Asterios Polyp as a serious contender. It makes the most use of the medium to tell an engaging and touching story.
