Thomas "Tom" Grummett (born 1959) is a Canadian comic book artist and penciller. He is best known for his work as penciller on titles such as The New Titans, The Adventures of Superman, Superboy, Power Company, Robin, New Thunderbolts and Heroes.
During his run on The Adventures of Superman, Grummett and writer Jerry Ordway (along with editor Mike Carlin,, Dan Jurgens, Roger Stern and others) were the architects of "The Death of Superman" storyline, in which Superman died and was resurrected. It was during that storyline, that Grummett and writer Karl Kesel, created the new Superboy in The Adventures of Superman #500 (June 1993). Grummett drew parts for DC Comics' other major event of the early 1990s, "Batman: Knightfall", contributing parts of Knightquest and KnightsEnd.
In 2007, he completed a run as penciller on Thunderbolts, with writer Fabian Nicieza and inker Gary Erskine.
Grummett was based out of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan for much of his career, using couriers to transport completed pages on Superman and other titles to DC Comics in New York.
In 2009 he co-created the X-Men Forever series with Chris Claremont for Marvel Comics.
