From Aspen Comics' Vince Hernandez
Hello all,
Unfortunately it's with great sadness that I must inform everyone that Michael Turner tragically passed away last night, June 27th at approximately 10:42 pm in Santa Monica, Ca. Turner had been dealing with recent health complications arisen in the past few weeks. More details concerning Turner's passing, and services, will be given shortly.
Anyone wishing to send their condolences to Michael Turner's family is encouraged to send to:
Aspen MLT, Inc.
C/O Michael Turner

Culver City, CA, 90230
Aspen also encourages anyone wishing to make a charitable donation to please send to Michael Turner's requested charities:
The American Cancer Society
Or
The Make-A-Wish Foundation
Turner has done quite a lot in his short life. From being an artist on Witchblade to creating his own comic Fathom, and starting his own company Aspen. He's also done many many covers for Marvel and DC, and has had action figures based on his art with a line for Superman/Batman in the Supergirl story, and the Identity Crisis toys. Michael will be missed greatly. He was 37.
He died Friday in a hospital in Southern California after a long fight with Cancer. :frown:
