I'm under the impression that most funny and non-serious comics are drawn in a "cartoonish" and simple way, while most serious comics are drawn in a dramatic and detailed way that aims at being very realistic.

Are there comics that are serious but are drawn in a simple way like the non-serious ones?

Peter Bagge's biographical work is pretty "serious" and done in a "cartoonish" style. Bone has both silly and serious moments and a drawing style that's a balance between the two.
>>
Tails Gets Trolled.
>>
The Bus has very detailed art.
I Kill Giants is entirely cartoony.
>>
Joe Sacco's work maybe, his characters are fairly cartooned.

That's interesting, thank you. I'll definitely check them out.
Although I meant more of a simple drawing style, not necessarily cartoony (which can also be detailed, which isn't what I was looking for)

I Kill Giants is a mishmash of simplification, pop manga, and cartooning.
>>
Try the works of Chris Ware.

Very simplistic, very serious.

You didn't ask for silly comics that are drawn serious, but I'm still gonna mention Gone With The Blastwave

I might be missing a subtle hint here. Is that man going to go do cocaine?

Jason Lutes is not cartoony, but his work is minimalist. A lot of indie and alternative cartoonists have cartoony style for serious subjects. For example, Persepolis and Maus.

Yes.

Charles Forsman's The End of the Fucking World uses a very Shulz inspired artsyle.

Cerebus isn't exactly realistic, it's furry and caricature mixed.

Maus isn't cartoony, but the characters are presented as animals.

If you really want cartoony art and serious subject matter, you're better off going to early /a/...

You want cringe-inducing seriousness of story and theme combined with stylized, cartoony art? Look no further than the works of Chris Ware, especially Jimmy Corrigan.

>>95125050
Look up Ms. Don't Touch Me. Deadly serious, cutesy simplistic presentation.
Then look up everything else by that same illustrator.
Fucking France, man.

I am mildly offended - just mildly - at the suggestion that Peanuts is a non-serious comic strip. Particularly the crude oversimplified thing on the left in OPs pic which, if it's not obvious to everyone else, is not a Peanuts strip.

It looks like another anon >>95127411 intended to make my case here.

Peanuts, for what it was, was a serious comic drawn in a fairly toony manner. Groundbreaking really, being an inverse of what other comics before 50s were at the time, whimsical adventure comics drawn in quite a detailed manner (like Little Nemo).
