Nick Lyons has been a cartoonist for over 20 years, brought up in Alderley Edge Cheshire, England. He started cartooning seriously at aged 11, influenced by cartoonists Norman Thelwell, Ronald Searle, Robert Crumb, Paul Sample and Jan Sanders and the cartoons in Private Eye and Punch. At 14 he drew a cartoon poster of his Alderley Edge cricket club the AECC and sold prints behind the bar, from then on he knew he was going to be a cartoonist. At 18 he worked as a resident cartoonist for the Publishers D.C. Thompsons in Scotland, drawing zany cartoons for The Beano and The Dandy and many of their other 40 comics, magazines and newspapers.
