39 Wholesome Comics By This New Yorker Cartoonist Offer A Charming Look At Everyday Life

Some comics are just here for the punchline—Gabrielle Drolet’s are doing a little more.

Her work has appeared in The New Yorker, The New York Times, The Globe and Mail, and more, and it’s easy to see why they hold such broad appeal.

These comics walk that perfect line between funny and quietly observant, offering quick hits of humor that stick with you a bit longer than you expect.

Whether it’s capturing the awkwardness of being human, the weird logic of modern life, or the occasional emotional gut-punch (in a good way), Drolet’s work gets it.

This gallery features some of our favorite panels from her collection, and if you’ve ever had a moment where you laughed and felt deeply seen at the same time—well, you’re in the right place.
