Vincent Deporter (13 February 1959 – 27 September 2022) was a Belgian artist who works in both comics and animation. Deporter got his start in comics working as an assistant to Jean Graton, before selling his own strips, as Mike Deporter, to Spirou magazine. From 1996, after relocating to New York, he has worked on DC's line of comic books adapted from popular animated cartoons, like Scooby-Doo and Ed, Edd n Eddy, and has also inked many of the Batman, and Superman style-guides. He continued to work for Nickelodeon, notably on SpongeBob SquarePants. When Nickelodeon Magazine closed its pages, he then started to write and draw for the "SpongeBob Comics", as a regular contributor. Deporter also writes and illustrates on more philosophical issues. He has illustrated the book Sacred Cows: a Lighthearted Look at Belief and Tradition around the World, by the host of The Thinking Atheist Seth Andrews. He lives in Arizona, painting and writing his first non-graphic novels.
