Sure, the library has online access to lots of great comics in the Underground & Independent Comics Collection, but did you know that you can access New Yorker cartoons through Artstor? Check out the Condé Nast collection in the Artstor Digital Library to take a look.
As Artstor notes:
The New Yorker‘s cartoons are legendary for their incisive wit and for shedding light on the lives and foibles of the city’s dwellers from the Depression through to the era of “fake news.” The magazine’s cartoonists include renowned figures like, Peter Arno, Roz Chast, Otto Soglow, William Steig, James Thurber, and Gahan Wilson.
