Chris Rock has called Hannibal Buress the funniest young comic he’s seen in years.

Buress has written for “30 Rock” and “Saturday Night Live” and is the co-host of the Adult Swim series “The Eric Andre Show.” The Chicago-born Buress, who currently lives in New York City, will perform Dec. 30 at Zanies, located at Pheasant Run Resort, 4051 E. Main St., St. Charles. The show starts at 7 p.m., and tickets cost $30, available at www.ticketmaster.com.

Kane County Chronicle reporter Eric Schelkopf had the chance to talk to Buress about his latest activities.
