A moment of silence..
Sunday, June 29th, 2008At June 27the 2008, comic industry has lost one of it’s big talent, Michael Turner. Michael Turner was the creator of Witchblade, Fathom and the founder of Aspen comic.
Since he diagnosed with cancer on 2000, it turned out he was never that healthy (although from the surface, he looked fine). After 7 years of battle, he passed away.
Honestly, i’m not a really big fan of his work but his passing is really bring out the tears from my eye sockets.
With so many great artists (Will Eisner, Jack Kirby, Alex Toth and Mike Weiringo..to name a few) have found their place up there, someday heaven will publish it’s own comic book company.
Michael Turner is not with us today but his work will influence many of tomorrow’s artists.
Now…..please, bow your heads together and let us pray for him and his family.
