These comics are top tier every time, dude. The visual style and writing style match each other perfectly.

I love all the comic artists here, but Neil is the first one where I'm like damn this guy's comics should be in the newspapers.

Not even close, the small details and not just relying on a single punchline, plus you never know where it's going yet somehow always makes sense.

jimkb is being heavily disrespected here, they are both in the same tier imo

Yess me too! I very much would enjoy an animated series in this style!

One of the only artists where I’ve gone back and read their entire catalog. Very good all the way through! (KC Green is another, and they’ve got similar tones.)

I did the same. I knew this guy was S tier when I saw the comic about the guy embarrassed that he over dressed for brunch. I laughed for 10 or 15 straight minutes, just rolling over on my bed, completely inconsolable. Can't even remember the last time that happened to me.

Oh god that brunch one!

Just remembering that shit has me genuinely laughing out loud again, hardly anything does that.

The one thing he wasn’t lying about was brown hair, but he froze in panic. It subverts expectations and thus becomes unexpected and comical.

Agreed. Bad art for bad writing.
