Matt Furie
Matt Furie lives in California with his wife Aiyana and their daughter, creating characters that bring together his inner child, inner teen-angst and a connection to a higher ‘self’. Matt’s intricate, goofy psychedelia communicates the happiness that drawing brings him. His comic series Boys Club is considered a classic of ‘slacker’ humour, with its peace-loving character Pepe the Frog having become a global meme. After publishing Mindviscocity with Fantagraphics in 2020, Matt’s most expansive and sumptuous book to date, he recently released Trigore Labyrinth, a heavy metal mutant facegasm in collaboration with his friends Will Sweeney and Skinner.
