Michael DeForge Interview For FORGE. Issue 5

Michael DeForge has become one of the most recognizable and important names in the indie comics scene within the relatively short amount of time he’s been publishing his work. Although DeForge originally hails from Ottawa, and spent several years designing gig posters as a high school student there, he’s now one of the many leading members in the now flourishing Toronto comics community. TCAF, Toronto’s largest comic art gathering, has probably had one of the biggest impacts on his current career and DeForge even owes many of the personal and professional relationships to the festival. The festival, which takes place each year during the spring in a public library in the city, has fostered many incredibly important friendships and publishing opportunities for the various artists who participate in it and has become a staple in the world of comics today. Michael DeForge currently resides in a basement apartment in Toronto that seems to radiate with all of the incredible and vibrant art he ferociously produces day to day. Since 2009 DeForge has created a massive body of work including his annual series Lose, his weekly comic turn hard cover book Ant Colony, Very Casual, and his current weekly comic Sticks Angelica. DeForge is also currently a staff member on Cartoon Network’s Adventure Time and works as a “prop designer” for the show remotely from his apartment. Despite all of the enormous work he keeps busy with and the book tour he has embarked on this fall, DeForge still seems to be able to find time to play in his punk band Creep Highway with his best friend and fellow art collaborator, Patrick Kyle.
