thesilversirenThis post will mean v. little to the majority of my flist. Michael Turner, comic book artist and founder of Aspen Comics passed away following his long battle with cancer. He was 37.
He's primarily known for his work on Witchblade - that's what got him noticed. He also created/drew Fathom and Soulfire.
He'd been battling cancer since 2000, and had lost the bulk of the bone in his right hip. Because of his battle with cancer, in recent years he's been mostly doing cover art. His style is pretty distinctive. I'll have to edit this post later on for linkage.
