I agree with your praise of the soundtrack, but to be honest, I don't agree that most who've seen the film don't realize its origin as an indie comic. It's one of any number of films made since 1990 or so that would not exist were it not for a comic book. Each of these films was popularized from their outset by fans of the comic books.

I would recommend "Ghost World" to any record collector/fan of obscure
music who is interested in trying some semi-current independent
comics. Most people who've enjoyed the movie doesn't realize it (and
"Road to Perdition") started out as a comic book.
