Myke Ashley-Cooper – founder of cartoonist.co.za

Myke founded this site in the 90s, as a service to all the professional and amateur cartoonists in South Africa. 

He cartooned regularly for South Africa’s top investigative monthly magazine, Noseweek. He specialised in pun and cliché single panel gag cartoons and caricatures as well as gif animations and photographically manipulated images.

His wicked sense of humour and crazy look on life are greatly missed.
