Sadly, Michael Turner died at the age of 37 at the end of June this year. He fought bone cancer for about eight years.

From all the articles I've read, he was a remarkably kind and friendly man. He was an artist best known for his work on Witchblade, Fathom, Soufire, Superman/Batman (I know fellas that swear by his Supergirl drawings). He also drew covers for Brad Meltzer's "Identity Crisis" which was a DC comics bestseller. I'm really sorry he's gone, Turner was talented, too young and an all around nice guy. I kinda feel like a shmuck cuz I should have posted this sooner.

I was never a Michael Turner fan (quite the opposite), but I wouldn't wish cancer on anyone. Hope his family is holding up well.

In a house, silly!
I have loved Turner's work for a lot time - it is a shame that he is gone. His art will be greatly missed.
