Cole's career by that time had taken on another dimension. In 1954, after having drawn slightly risqué, single-panel "[[good girl art]]" cartoons for magazines, using the pen name "Jake", Cole became a cartoon illustrator for ''Playboy''. Under his own name, he produced full-page, watercolored gag cartoons of beautiful but dim girls and rich but equally dim old men. Cole's art first appeared in the fifth issue; he would have at least one piece published in ''Playboy'' each month for the rest of his life.<ref>''Playboy'', (November 1958), p.24</ref>  So popular was his work that the second item of merchandise ever licensed by Playboy (after cufflinks with the famous rabbit-head logo) was a cocktail-napkin set, "Females by Cole", featuring his cartoons.{{Citation needed|date=November 2010}} Cole biographer [[Art Spiegelman]] said, "Cole's goddesses were estrogen soufflés who mesmerized the ineffectual saps who lusted after them."<ref>Chun (2004), p. 8</ref><ref>Spiegelman and Kidd (2001), p. 112</ref>
