Where do I start?

The Image series from 1995.

Release order. The only way to really experience. Besides, Busiek and Anderson use the passage of IRL time really well.

So I should read everything?

Yes. There is a lot of good stories even the one they made for 9/11. Lots of interesting characters and arcs that pay off in small and big ways.

Someone at Vertigo really likes Busiek it seems.
If you're only going to read one, Confession has the 2 best stories, but it's all gold except maybe The Dark Age, wasn't wild about that.
