A prop comic is a type of comedian who makes extensive use of humorous objects, or conventional objects used in humorous ways, as part of his comedy routine. The name comes from the stage and film term, "prop" (short for "property"), which refers to any object handled by an actor in the course of a performance.
Examples of prop comics are Carrot Top, Gallagher, Kurt Markgraf and Joel Hodgson.
