    Paulbot is right - it is Wildman's art. That's actually why I was really confused about 5FDP's grail, as I couldn't remember a Geoff Senior 3-part poster, but I used to have the Wildman one on my wall. (It's still a great poster.)

    P.S. If I recall correctly the third part of the poster also says Wildman '91 in the bottom right-hand corner (to the right of the snake-like wire, in the reddy-brown brick just in front of Prime's semi-obscured leg.)

    Thanks guys I'll check out the above when I get a chance. Makes sense though. I've always gone with what's quoted on TFArchive and never really thought about it. It might be time to revisit the comics I think.

    I do remember that at least twice they either misattributed or failed to credit the artist of free-gift posters in the comics themselves (like... I think it was Robin Smith's Galvatron and Magnus from #79-80). It's quite possible that it might even have said Geoff Senior did them at one point but they would have printed a retraction/correction later.

    #319 does actually say in the "next issue" blurb, that the free poster was by Geoff Senior... which they may have gotten mistaken by the issue itself being by Senior.
    The three issues themselves don't mention who did the poster, as they just say that there is a free poster on the intro page.
    If there was a correction later, I haven't seen it yet.
