Comparisons[edit]

I have trouble with the comparisons in the article. Graphically, Barsotti's work bears little relation to the sketches of Thurber or the purposely inept-looking scribbles of Chast. Graphically, he is the heir of Otto Soglow (who also featured a king)and who drew lines and curves so clean they looked draughted rather than free-handed. In content, the only thing he shares with Thurber and Chast is the occasional inexplicability of his humor. Like them, he can make you laugh for reasons that you simply cannot explain to anyone. (By contrast, every last Far Side gag can be deconstructed, though Larson is just as funny.) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jim Stinson (talk • contribs) 23:27, 9 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
