Ian Rimmer
Ian Rimmer is a British comic book creator associated with Marvel Comics.
Regarding Transformers, he was the second editor on the Marvel UK comic and wrote several strips and text features. Due to his role as editor, he was up to date with the comic's continuity and could write stories like "Ark Duty", "Stargazing" or "Prime Bomb!" that made explicit use of it.
He's indirectly responsible for Primus: he rejected a pitch by James Hill on the origin of the Transformer, being more interested in stories set on Earth.[1]
Before Transformers, he wrote strips for that other big 80s Marvel UK comic about warring robot toys, Spider-Man and Zoids.[2] He has also written for Zorro, Captain Planet, and Doctor Who, and penciled and inked for the Hulk.
