(21,758 posts)Pepe's creator Matt Furie over the weekend depicted the frog in a coffin, mourned by other members of his Boy's Club cartoon strip.
Furie recently complained that "a chilled frog" had become a hate symbol.
Pepe has recently been depicted as Adolf Hitler and as a member of the US white supremacist Ku Klux Klan group.
