We will miss you, Michael.
June 29, 2008Yesterday, as I was preparing something for work, a friend of mine startled me with some shocking and saddening news. He told me that Michael Turner, age 37, had passed away due to cancer.
This sad news has greatly affected the fans, as well as the industry.

Back in 2000, Turner was diagnosed with chrondrosarcoma, a type of bone cancer that attacks cartilage. It cost him his right hip, a portion of his pelvis and several pounds of bone. All this time, he never let his life get brought down due to his cancer, even attending conventions.
