You have no idea how grateful I am for your help Pippin! Your tutorial was exactly what I needed. Thank you, thank you, thank you! ??

Here’s my working snippet (adjusted to only show 5 most recent) for anyone who needs it.

<?php
//Many thanks to Pippin Williamson -https://pippinsplugins.com/get-comments-array-user-ids/

add_filter( 'comments_clauses', 'pw_comments_by_users', 10, 2 );
$comments = get_comments('number=5');
remove_filter( 'comments_clauses', 'pw_comments_by_users' );

function pw_comments_by_users( $clauses, $wp_comment_query ) {
	$clauses['where'] .= ' AND user_id IN (14,56,58,200)';
    return $clauses;
}
	 if ( $comments )
    {
        $output.= "<ul class=lastcomments>\n";
        foreach ( $comments as $c )
        {
        $output.= '<li>';
		$output.= '<a href="'.get_comment_author( $c->comment_ID ).'">';
		 $output.= get_comment_author($c->comment_ID);
		$output.= '</a><p>';
		$output.= get_comment_excerpt($c->comment_ID);
		 $output.= '</br><span>Posted in: <a href="'.get_comment_link( $c->comment_ID ).'">';
        $output.= get_the_title($c->comment_post_ID);
        $output.= '</a>';
		$output.= ' on '. mysql2date('m/d/Y', $c->comment_date, $translate);
        $output.= "</span></p></li>\n";
        }
        $output.= '</ul>';

        echo $output;
    } else { echo "No comments made";}?>
