I'm talking here about B. Kliban and Roz Chast.  They're my favorites.
They seem to have the market cornered when it comes to a certain strange
brand of humor.  I've seen others try to duplicate it to no avail.
Actually, Koren comes close, but you can usually put your finger on
why you think a Koren is funny.  With Kliban you'll laugh but you
won't know why, and if you do know why you probably feel that you're
the only one who is interested in your perception of its humor.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot, Larson's "Beyond The Far Side" book is pretty
good/weird.  If you know of other cartoonists like these, tell the net.

Oh well, just trying to start up an interesting new topic.
Baalz and york ort now.
