Murray George Webb (born 22 June 1947, Invercargill) is a respected New Zealand caricature artist. Based in Dunedin, his usual subjects are sports icons, for example Jonah Lomu.

Before turning his hand to drawing, Webb played first-class cricket for Otago and represented New Zealand in three Test matches from 1971 to 1974. His younger brother Richard was also a pace bowler who played for Otago; Richard also represented New Zealand, but as a one-day player.
