I’ll throw in a classic Gahan Wilson.
Optometrist patient reads eye chart with mounting concern as the optometrist sneaks up behind him. The eye chart reads “I am an insane eye doctor and I am going to kill you while you read this”.

Lots of Calvin & Hobbes in here, but this is my all time favorite, and there’s no humor to it at all.
Calvin’s dad sacrifices the main part of his work day to play in the snow with his son.

This one had such an amazing plot twist right from the start.

Henry Fairlie, at the rise of the Reagan revolution.

The America which Europe fears is the America of the Reaganites. The America once of the Scopes trial; the America of prohibition; the America of ignorant isolationism. The America then of “better dead than red”; the America of McCarthyism; the America of the last fundamentalists of the 1950s. The America now of the new evangelicals; the America of the Moral Majority; the America of a now ignorant interventionism; the America which can see homosexuals as a conspiracy; feminists as a conspiracy; perhaps even women as a conspiracy. The America of fear. For it is in fear that the ungoverned and the unfree are doomed to live. And there was this America in control at Detroit. It is time that we reminded ourselves, and said aloud and more often, that it is from these people that nastiness comes. It is time that we pointed out to the neo-conservatives that democracy has never been subverted from the left but always from the right. No democracy has fallen to communism, without an army; many democracies have fallen to fascism, from within. The Reaganites on the floor were exactly those who in Germany gave the Nazis their main strength and who in France collaborated with them and sustained Vichy. If the neo-conservatives cannot sniff danger, surely the rest of us can be alert.
