Geoff Senior
Geoff Senior (born 1960) is a British artist, best known for his work in the comic book field in the 1980s, mainly for Marvel UK. Senior is perhaps best remembered for his art for the Marvel "Transformers" series. Biography. Senior illustrated the 1985 book "Space Assassin". He debuted on the British "Transformers" title drawing #42, and became one of the title's most prolific and popular artists (always inking his own pencils), thanks to his geometric style, which perfectly suited the dynamics of the series. He worked on a number of other titles for Marvel UK, including "Doctor  Who Magazine" (1988), "Dragon's Claws" (which he co-created with Simon Furman, and drew all ten issues of), "Death's Head" (another character he helped create, initially as a guest star for "Transformers") and "Action Force Weekly", as well as several Marvel UK annuals. He followed Furman across to Marvel USA in 1989, drawing "Transformers" US #61, and four more issues before the title's cancellation, including the classic #75. He drew several other titles in the early 1990s, including "Hell's Angel" (later renamed as "Dark Angel") and several issues of "What If...?", as well as returning to  Transformers for the final few issues of "Transformers Generation 2". Since then, Senior has largely worked in advertising, though he has returned to "Transformers" on occasion, for the 1997 BotCon convention comic "Reaching the Omega Point", two illustrations for the Transforce convention book "Alignment", several covers for Titan Publishing's series of "Transformers" trade paperbacks, and the cover of issue 1 for Panini's 2003 UK title "Transformers Armada". The Senior/Furman team returned for the first issue of Titan Comics' (UK) "Transformers" in August 2007, in which Senior produced the art for a new story based on the live -action movie characters and events (subsequently reprinted by IDW Publishing in the US). From 2012 to 2014, Senior provided retailer-incentive variant covers for IDW's "Transformers: Regeneration One" comics, which continued the Marvel U.S. "Transformers" series, and was a contributing interior artist to "Regeneration One" #0. In 2019 Senior and Simon Furman started their own company, Forged by Fire Productions, for the purpose of publishing their own comic, "To the Death". Bibliography. Comics include:
