EditSynopsis

Tok Tok is a printed comics magazine from Cairo, named after the three-wheeled taxis that carry people of every background through the city's streets. It is made and edited by the cartoonists themselves and aims to bring together a lively crowd of comic strips in a free, contemporary spirit, rather than following the traditional comic magazine aimed only at children. It is meant for readers young and old.

EditBackground

Tok Tok was founded by five cartoonists: Shennawy, Makhlouf, Andeel, Hicham Rahma and Tawfik. Other artists and writers joined the team later, including Migo, Anwar, Mohammed Salah, Hefnawy, Hagrassy, Tamer Abdelhamid and Mohammed Ismail Amine. The first issue, numbered zero, came out on 10 January 2011. The magazine kept appearing until issue 14 in March 2016, and was followed by other publications, the latest being a Tok Tok anthology book translated into French. The magazine says it wants to work with cartoonists in Egypt and abroad and to take part in comics festivals and exhibitions around the world. Its 2019 to 2020 activities were co-funded by the European Union.
