"Quels sont les auteurs de science fiction les plus drôles ?". La question a été posée à plusieurs auteurs anglo-saxons parmi lesquels Mike Resnick, Frederik Pohl ou Gardner Dozois.

Voici la réponse de Joe Haldeman :
"The name that immediately comes to mind is Henry Kuttner, especially his tales of Gallagher, the mad drunken inventor. L. Sprague de Camp, especially The Incomplete Enchanter. Harry Harrison's Stainless Steel Rat and the broad satire of Bill, the Galactic Hero. Of course Douglas Adams is the modern avatar of sf humor. Cory Doctorow is funny, too.

I wrote one comic novel, The Hemingway Hoax, though it had a dark edge to it."
