British artist (born 1960)
Geoff Senior (born 1960) is a Britishartist, best known for his work in thecomic book field in the 1980s, mainly forMarvel UK. Senior is perhaps best known for his art for the MarvelTransformers series.
Senior illustrated the 1985 bookSpace Assassin. He debuted on the BritishTransformers 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, includingDoctor Who Magazine (1988),Dragon's Claws (which he co-created withSimon Furman, and drew all ten issues of),Death's Head (another character he helped create, initially as a guest star forTransformers) andAction Force Weekly, as well as several Marvel UK annuals. He followed Furman across to Marvel USA in 1989, drawingTransformers US #61, and four more issues before the title's cancellation, including the classic #75. He drew several other titles in the early 1990s, includingHell's Angel (later renamed asDark Angel) and several issues ofWhat If...?, as well as returning toTransformers for the final few issues ofTransformers Generation 2.
Since then, Senior has largely worked in advertising, though he has returned toTransformers on occasion, for the 1997 BotCon convention comicReaching the Omega Point, two illustrations for the Transforce convention bookAlignment, several covers for Titan Publishing's series ofTransformers trade paperbacks, and the cover of issue 1 forPanini's 2003 UK titleTransformers 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'sTransformers: Regeneration One comics, which continued the Marvel U.S.Transformers series, and was a contributing interior artist toRegeneration One #0.
In 2019 Senior andSimon Furman published their own comic,To the Death, which lasted for ten issues.
