Luckily I have comic-reading friends who are much more current than I am plus the Eisner award nominations came out last week, which is always a good guide so the following recommendations are mostly a combination of those two sources.
Not sure whether you're into superhero stuff, GY, but Tom King continues to get great reviews for any comic he does and is nominated this year for Human Target. and also for Supergirl. Also I've heard good things about Nightwing, Immortal Hulk and Invincible Iron Man. Daniel Warren Johnson's name has cropped up quite a bit too recently - his Beta Ray Bill mini-series was very well received.
What else? Are you familiar with James Tynion IV? He's done a load of stuff but Something is Killing the Children is doing very well at the moment, with an inevitable Netflix series planned. Bitter Root has had great reviews and also an Eisner nomination, as has Kyle Higgins' Radiant Black. Oh, and Saga has come back after a very long hiatus.
