Those two are my favorite authors, but sadly I’ve read all their work and neither are making any more.

I absolutely love that style of writing and I’d love to know if there’s more like them!

    Craig Shaw Gardner’s Ebenezum/ Wuntvor trilogies are fantasy comedy.

    Philip Jose Farmer (as Kilgore Trout) wrote Venus on the Half Shell as a sci fi comedy.

    Mentioning Kilgore Trout… maybe look into the works of Kurt Vonnegut - his works are usually sci-fi - not as openly comedic, but have more of a bittersweet / satire / black comedy / surreal comedic situations.

    Yahtzee Croshaw (the Zero Punction guy) has also written several fantasy and sci fi comedy books - Jacques McKeown is one series.

    Glen Cook, more famous for the Black Company series - also writes a fantasy comedy series - Garrett P.I..

    Steven Erikson, more famous for the Malazan books - also writes a sci-fi comedy series - Wilful Child.
