Matt Forney

Matt Forney made his entrance in the pages of MegaPyton in 2001, a Modern Age creation from Swedish cartoonist Simon Gärdenfors published by Egmont. With only a handful of catalog appearances, he's a rare find — the kind of character who shares his corner of the comics world with a notably eclectic crowd, rubbing shoulders with the likes of Joe Matt, Chester Brown, and Ivan Brunetti. For collectors with a taste for the offbeat indie end of the spectrum, tracking down his appearances in MegaPyton is a rewarding dig into an underexplored pocket of early 2000s alternative comics.
