I am really really sad those 2 days so i wanted to open a thread. One of my fave. artists and probably lots of ppl's, is gone. On Friday June 27th at 10:42 Pacific Daylight Time at the Santa Monica Hospital in California, Turner died after a long battle with cancer. I have learned the news as i returned from a friend of mine... from Newsarama.com. And i was completely shocked. i think the news is announced in Wizarld World Chicago Convention. What a sad place and time for such a thing to be announced. I mean all the comic fans around.

Whatever... I was a fan of him since Top Cow days but a much bigger fan after his own company of Aspen Comics.
I will miss you very much Mike. And also will feel very very sad as i grab the valiant Uncanny X-men 500 cover by him, next month. Sigh...
Probably Iron Maiden says it right. Only the good die young...
As Mike was just 37.
