Michael Turner Tribute

I had the opportunity to meet Mike at WWPA. I remember him having this glowing energy to him despite everything that was happening at the time. Ill never forget that. Ive been a comic fan since I was 9. Now I'm 27 and there were a few years that for one reason or another, I had to take a hiatus from my love. I remember that one of the things that pulled me back in was Mike's work. Something about it, so fluid, so beautiful.

I kept up with Mikes condition over the last few years always hoping the best for him. When I turned to the last page of my Wizard # 203, well damn ive never had a piece of paper punch me so hard in my entire life. Mike was one of my heroes and I keep finding myself tearing up whenever I see a piece of his work. I wish this was a bad dream.

He was such a great person. Like his mom said, "he was Captain Amazing". All of us, in the comic community, are a loosely knit family, but a family regardless. We will always remember you my friend.....
