". . .favourite implies admiration, and I do not admire these people; they're horrible and vile excuses for human beings. . ."

I couldn't agree more.  We should probably make this point early on: though we are compelled by serial killers, and at times our choice of words may imply admiration, we do not condone their actions and mean no offense.
That being said, I really like reading about Ed Gein and Ted Bundy.  Ed Gein inspired so many fictional serial killers, of course: Norman Bates, Jame Gumb, Leatherface.  Norman Bates is compelling enough on his own; I love knowing the real story behind the fiction. 
And Ted Bundy was kind of a class all his own, if you ask me; his "Dr. Jekyll" persona was so clean-cut and far removed from his "Mr. Hyde."  Who he was during the day was so sexy, and who he became at night was so terrifying in comparison.
I must admit I share your fascination with those who remain uncaught, especially Jack the Ripper. I mean, he was on a roll, and he just stopped.  I'm dying to know the story behind that.

I'm surprised no one's brought up Dinosaur Comics.  I'm working my way through the archives of that one.  http://www.qwantz.com/index.php
I really enjoy Super Effective, a comic about pokemon.  However, there aren't many of them and it's not updated very often.

There's also Chopping Block, a really dark comic about a serial killer in day to day life.  This hasn't been updated since May 2009, though.  And it's not exactly family-friendly. http://www.choppingblock.org/
And my favourite, which I read religiously every day, Cyanide and Happiness!  This one can be pretty offensive, too.   It can be found at explosm.net.
Edit: I can't believe I forgot XKCD! Understanding this comic is a lot easier if you're a tech nerd, which I am not, but it's still hilarious. http://xkcd.com/

Ooh, I hate when people get your/you're confused.  I nearly put the book down whenn I saw that typo.  But I didn't, obviously, and I'm glad.
