Steven Cook is a British artist, photographer, and graphic designer.

Best known for his work in the comics field, Cook was art director and designer for the British comic 2000 AD. During this time he produced a number of striking cover illustrations along with its distinctive, iconic logo still in use to this day.

His other notable work outside of the comics industry includes three album sleeves for Asian Dub Foundation, William Orbit and Last Man Standing False Starts & Broken Promises, which was selected in September 2008 by Peter Saville and Dylan Jones for the London exhibition 'SPIN – The Art of Record Design'.

More recently, April 2010 saw Warner Bros. using Cook's comic book logo for The Losers film campaign. Steven Cook is a lecturer at the University of the Arts London.

Over the past ten years he has produced a body of work that sees him remixing his own photography and fusing it with imagery from a bygone era.
