Jeff Matsuda is a Japanese-American Emmy award-winning concept artist, comics artist, and animator in the United States. He served as the chief character designer for both "Jackie Chan Adventures" and "The Batman", and is the president and creative director of X-Ray Kid Studios. Matsuda was discovered by Rob Liefeld after submitting some "WildC.A.T.S." samples pages to Liefeld's Extreme Studios and Jim Lee's Wildstorm. However, Matsuda's first published artwork, depicting the "X-Force" character Cable, appeared in the letter art section of "Wizard Magazine".

While at Extreme, he penciled issues of the Image Comics titles: "Brigade, Team Youngblood, Youngblood Strikefile, Troll" and "New Men". Matsuda moved on to work for Marvel Comics beginning with some pages for "X-Men Prime", which eventually lead to runs on "X-Factor" and "Wolverine" in addition to work on individual issues of "X-Men, Generation X, Avengers" and some pinup drawings in "X-Men Unlimited".

Matsuda was later reunited with Liefeld at Awesome Comics which published "Kaboom", written by award-winning writer Jeph Loeb. The protagonist of the title featured a third spelling of its creator's first names, Geoff, though in Loeb's case, Jeph is actually short for Joseph.
