Terry Kevin Austin (born August 23, 1952) is an American comic book creator working primarily as an inker.

Austin grew up in Detroit, Michigan, and attended Wayne State University. Austin came to prominence in 1976–1977, inking Marshall Rogers' pencils on a celebrated run of Batman stories for DC Comics' Detective Comics collaborating with writer Steve Englehart. During this same period, Austin inked Michael Netzer (Nasser) on DC's Martian Manhunter in Adventure Comics and Green Arrow/Black Canary in World's Finest Comics, as well as Al Milgrom on Marvel Comics' Captain Marvel. He later teamed with Rogers again on Marvel's Doctor Strange.

In 1977, Austin and penciler John Byrne became the new art team on Uncanny X Men. With writer Chris Claremont they produced a series of stories — particularly "The Dark Phoenix Saga" — which elevated the title into the top selling American comic book. (Austin was given the Eagle Award for Favourite Inker three times during this period.)

Superman #400 (Oct. 1984), and Batman #400 (Oct. 1986). He was the regular inker of DC's Superman Adventures for nearly six years, from 1996–2002. His inking work since 2002 has included over fifteen years of inking the Sonic the Hedgehog comic book series for Archie Comics, which he continued until the series cancellation in 2017. and Rob Liefeld.

Austin has also worked as a writer, primarily for Marvel's X Men titles and a run on Cloak and Dagger. His rare penciling jobs can be seen on the covers of Uncanny X Men #123, #142 and Annual #3 (with Frank Miller), as well as his self published book, Austin Art: 60 Pages of Drawings by Terry Austin (2003).

Austin resides near Poughkeepsie, New York, where he plays volleyball and gets together often with fellow comics veteran Fred Hembeck. Austin's affection for the comic strip character Popeye is well established,
