Richard McGuire Ros Chast (New Yorker)

His comics are less about drawing amazing images, but about making a language that ca be read. Stick people are like a typeface. Simple drawings also let people project themsleves into the drawing. You end up with a complicated image by putting loads of simple elements together (rather than some virtuosic drawing skill). Also this stuff is not just about drawing but also composition, page layout etc. Very graphic design.
