Chicago - Astro. Lines: 11 Both Chast and Kliban are absurdists. Their cartoons are not too dissimilar to the "No soap - radio" type jokes. They are both my favorite cartoonists. I have found that they are much funnier in book format, where you can read many of their cartoons at once, than in magazines. By the way my favorite cartoon is Chast's "Rudeness Galore" which was first in The New Yorker and subsequently in "Unscientific Americans." Jeff Bishop (..!ihnp4!oddjob!jeff)
