Seinfeld for me is #1, the only one I can think of that is/was really good at standup and also able to translate the writing/delivery to scripted on screen, although he had great help. I was not old enough to fully appreciate Seinfeld when it was on but have the entire box set and watch it from time to time. It's amazing how 80%+ of the material in the show holds up 25 years later.
Also love Chris Rock, who was edgy but also had good backing/solid point. Same with CK Louis and obviously Carlin.

If you haven't already checked out Russell Peters, you really should.
For anyone who hasn't seen Jimmy Carr might I suggest the following intro:

I will admit to laughing out loud to Ricky Gervais' bit on "the funniest leaflet he ever read". Here is the video if you haven't seen it. It was the funniest part of his show, but it was FUNNY...

I also take some enjoyment from the works of Frankie Boyle... sort of an acquired taste as you have to be okay with a) understanding a Scottish accent, and b) kinda dark material.

Dave Chapelle is one of my favorites too. Genuinely funny...
Great shout for Izzard.
I also like Ed Byrne.
And Jason Byrne (no relation) has so much energy that when he's on, he's on. I remember seeing him live before he got big (over here at least, not sure how big he is in North America). We have an annual festival and it was during a 'Best of Irish Comedy' show, where he wasn't the main act but he was brilliant, so much so I can't even remember who was the main act. Just him.
Oh and he's not a traditional comedian but I like the ventriloquist, Jeff Duhham.
Big fan of Steven Wright and Mitch Hedberg (RIP); I'm not sure why but I guess the one-liner type of comedy works for me. I also love Sarah Silverman. Dave Chapelle and Louis CK are up there, too. And I still like Steve Martin even though I think his peak was around the same time as The Jerk came out
