Agreed, he's the only one I can think of off the top of my head that would definitely be in my top 3. Honorable mention to Robert Kelly, recently listened to some of his stuff after seeing him on Louie and he's pretty good.
1.) Dane Cook(see expalnation below)
2.) Louis C.K.
3.) Iliza Schlesinger
Dane's recent stuff is soooooo shitty but his earlier material was incredibly good and he brought the rock star/bad ass comedian thing to a new level. I still go nuts every time I see Vicious Circle, Retaliation, or Harmful if Swallowed and Rough Around the Edges.
Louis is sooooooo fukkn raw I love it!
Iliza is very funny and level 3(twoplustwo'ers will understand) when it comes to comedy. She's also very hot.

Doug Stanhope beat out Dane Cook in their early years in a competition in 1995. I need to see some of Dane Cook's material. I don't know much about him.
