Man it is hard to pick one. There are a lot of guys who do great work. Most have one awesome set and then just regular funny stuff. To me Chris Rock's first HBO special is seminal while his latter stuff is just funny. Lewis Black seems to bring the fastball as consistently as anyone in my opinion.

Rock
Black
Robin Wlliams
Eddie Murphy
Cosby
Izzard
There are tons..

I'd say Black is at the top of my list simply because he has more sets that are just awesome to me. Plenty of people have one real good set but that's it.
