I thought he co-created Death's Head with Simon Furman.

Yes. Furman created the character. Senior created the design.

Put it this way, Furman's name is on an upcoming You Can Draw TFs book as author -- I'd really like to see him try some of the techniques...

LOL!

Yes, that would be very interesting!

Yay! I LOVED his work on Transformers--issue 75 of the Marvel run easily comes to mind. It's not overly technical, but it oozes style.
They needed someone like this working with the movie bots to simplify the look. 'Cause lets face it--these guys usually look so complicated that it's hard to tell one apart from another.

Good to see him back on the home team.

The guy's a Transformers legend, and illustrated some of the best TF comic stories ever put into print. Show some respect.

Yes, he did illustrate some of the best TF comic stories. For instance, that pic you posted is done very well. It was effective for the Marvel TF comics back in the day. Though, compared to some of the artwork produced by the DW and IDW artists, it doesn't quite impress me for use in modern works.

Geoff Senior's art was the WORST. There's not a single TF artist I would rate lower. Even the Galvatron pic example is terrible. Co-creating Death's Head isn't an accomplishment either. It's another bad Furman decision. Legend? Respect? You gotta be kidding. As much as I'm upset with Lee, I'd rather he did TF's.

This is why people don't need to argue: it's easier and far more effective just to sit back and let you speak.
