Guy Deslisle also wrote a really interesting series on places he visited and worked at: Pyongyang, Shenzhen and Chroniques birmanes. Slightly pricey, though, but I thought Pyongyang was worth it.

Planète BD has a lot of reviews that might be
useful. Here is a wish-list I made for myself of bd rated gros coup de coeur;
it might give you some more ideas. A lot of these get average
reviews for the first tome, and then excellent reviews for later tomes.

Musée du Louvre Editions (Périod glaciare de Nicolas de Crécy; Les
sous-sols du révolu: Extraits du journal d'un expert
de Marc-Antoine Mathieu, 2006;
Aux heures impaires de Eric Liberge, 2008; Le ciel au-dessus du Louvre de
Yslaire et Jean-Claude Carrière, 2009; Rohan au Louvre de Hirohiko Araki, 2010;
Un Enchantement de Christian Durieux, 2011; La traversée du Louvre de
David Prudhomme, 2012)

- This is a series commissioned by the Louvre. I've read the ones by Liberge,
Carrière, and Araki, and have Mathieu at home. They're good, not great, but I like
that each one is centered somehow in the Louvre. Le ciel au-dessus du Louvre is
the best so far; it centers on the founding of the museum at the height of the
revolution.

Blacksad (Quelque part entre les ombres; Arctic-Nation; Âme Rouge; L'enfer,
le Silence
), Juan Díaz Canales and Juanjo Guarnido

- A mid-century noir. The first was good but brief, and I have the second at home.

Siegfried (Siegfried; la Walkyrie; Le crépuscule des dieux), Alex Alice
(2007-2011)

- The first volume just arrived!

La Licorne (Le Dernier Temple d'Asclépios, Ad Naturam, Les eaux noires de
Venise, Le jour du baptème
), Scénario Mathieu Gabella, Dessin Anthony Jean (2006-
2012)

Sanctuaire (USS Nebraska, Le Puits des abîmes, Môth). Xavier Dorison,
Christophe Bec (2001-2004)

Prométhée (Atlantis, Blue beam project, Exogénèse, Mantique, Le sarcophage,
L'arche
), Stefano Raffaele (2008-2012)

Long John Silver (Lady Vivian Hastings, Neptune, Le labyrinthe
d'émeraude
), Xavier Dorison, Lauffray

Mattéo - Première période - 1914-1915, Jean-Pierre Gibrat

Les compagnons du crépuscule (Le Sortilège du bois des brumes, Les Yeux
d'étain de la ville glauque, Le Dernier chant des Malaterre, Dans le sillage des
sirènes
) François Bourgeon (1984-1992)

- I'm starting the first tome this weekend.

Aldébaran, Bételgeuse, Antarès Cycles, Léo (1994-pres)

I don't know where you can find them outside of France, but for adults, I like very much :

Les Formidables Aventures de Lapinot by Lewis Trondheim

BDs by Etienne Davodeau and Philippe Squarzonni (Each volume are independants)

Jean-Pierre Gibrat (Le vol du corbeau, Mattéo, le sursis)

Magasin Général by Regis Loisel

Manu Larcenet (Le combat ordinaire, Blast)

They are for adult in the sense that the themes are mature not because of sex and violence, but because a teenager would be bored or not interested (not all of course).

The main problem of the French - Belgium BD is the price. Traditionally a volume is a 48 pages A4 for a price of 12-15€, but it's more and more common to have different sizes, pages numbers, and prices.

Le Monde has recently been featuring some interesting BDs. I mentioned 3 in my log, including one about a prisoner of war, a cookbook, and a very colloquial volume on popular science.
