Career
Maguire's first credited published comics work was The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe vol. 2 #6 in 1986. He debuted at DC Comics with artwork in Who's Who: The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe #23 and 25.
In 1987, Maguire was the artist on the relaunch of Justice League written by Keith Giffen and J. M. DeMatteis. Maguire left the series with issue #24 (February 1989) but returned for Giffen and DeMatteis' final story in #60 (March 1992). The two writers and Maguire reunited in 2003 for the Formerly Known as the Justice League miniseries and its 2005 sequel, I Can't Believe It's Not the Justice League published in JLA Classified. Maguire's other collaborations with Giffen and DeMatteis include The Defenders at Marvel in 2005, a DC Retroactive: Justice League - The '90s one-shot in 2011, and a series of Metal Men back-up stories in the 2009 revival of the Doom Patrol.
Maguire was one of the artists who launched the Team Titans series in 1992. He has frequently collaborated with writer Fabian Nicieza on series such as Adventures of Captain America, X-Men Forever, and Batman Confidential.
Maguire and George Pérez alternated as artists of the New 52 revival of the Worlds' Finest series, written by Paul Levitz. He departed the series with #12. Maguire was to have reunited with Giffen and DeMatteis on the 2013 Justice League 3000 series, but was removed from the project by DC. He moved to Marvel for a short time, working on various projects with Brian Michael Bendis, but would return to DC in 2018 joining writer Marc Andreyko as the artist on Supergirl vol. 7 as of issue #21.
Critical reception
In 2015, comedian and late night talk show host Seth Meyers named Maguire as his favorite comic book artist. Meyers previously collaborated with Maguire and Bill Hader on the 2008 Spider-Man one-shot comic Spider-Man: The Short Halloween.
Writer Marc Andreyko praised Maguire stating "Basically, the right artist for any project is Kevin Maguire. He’s an absolute genius, an underappreciated genius." and "He has some of the best grasp of facial expressions and character acting of almost any artist working in the business."
