Charles Forsman is an American comic book author.

Combining a simple drawing style with dark and realistic themes, Forsman continues the tradition of alternative comics. He obtained a degree from the Center for Cartoon Studies in 2008.

His self-published comic Snake Oil won the 2008 Ignatz Awards for Outstanding Comic and Outstanding Series. His graphic novel The End of the Fucking World (also known as TEotFW), "a modern ballad of angst and murder", won the 2013 Ignatz Award for Outstanding Minicomic and was adapted in 2017 into a British TV series of the same name.

TEotFW and Celebrated Summer were published by Fantagraphics Books. All his other works, such as Revenger or Slasher, were either self-published, published by small publishers, or sold directly to online readers via Patreon.
