Michael Turner was an artist and writer best known for his work on Witchblade and Fathom. Micheal sadly passed away in 2008.
Michael Turner first began work as an artist for Top Cow. There he did background art before eventually co-creating Witchblade. In '98 he came out with Fathom, a comic he wrote and illustrated. Soon after this he was diagnosed with cancer. He recovered and in '02, created his own publishing company, Aspen MLT. Under Aspen MLT he continued the Fathom comic(after a year-long lawsuit over the rights to the title), coming out with another volume and several miniseries. He also worked on Soulfire and Shrugged, two other series he created, and had a fourth comic (Ekos) to be released after Soulfire was underway. Aside from his own projects, he also did cover work for both Marvel and DC. His only interior work for DC came in the stunning Superman/Batman Supergirl arc, in which helped reintroduced the character into the current DC Universe continuity.
Michael Turner very recently passed away, after his long battle with cancer, at the young age of 37. He died on the opening Friday of the Wizard World Chicago Convention in 2008, and there was a minute of silence dedicated to him on that Saturday.
His comic legacy will live on in the future movie project Fathom, which will star Megan Fox.
