X MIKE

È morto il primo tra noi,
il più grande, il capomastro.
La sua matita giace li,
sulla scrivania vuota e impolverata.

La bara davanti a me,
il mio cuore non ha neanche la forza di urlare.
Il mio sguardo si perde nel riflesso del legno,
la sua arte mi passa negli occhi,
il suo sguardo amichevole e dolce
fanno sgorgare la lacrime.

Un rimorso per tutto quello che non ha potuto fare,
un sorriso per tutto quello che ha fatto.

Disegno così,
con le lacrime che bagnano il foglio,
mentre la matita scorre veloce,
un piccolo tremito la blocca.
La mente corre a lui.
Cosa avrebbe detto?

La mia ispirazione era lui.

Torna in mente quel suo primo disegno,
il cuore batte forte…
… nacque una passione!

Torna in quella firma,
il mio cuore si ferma…
… nacque un amore!

Ti ringrazio di quello che mi hai regalato
Ti ringrazio della passione che mi hai trasmesso.

Non ti dimenticherò mai, Mike!

I've entered here every day, looking for new draws, but I never write...right now...stuff, I'm craying again

I'm from, Barcelona, Spain and one day I would wanted to go to some Comicon of USA and meet Michael Turner...is to late, and I have many things to thank. His art introduce myself in the comic world, and he teached my how to draw better...
Sorry but, I need to expres myself in my language (spanish)


Él me ayudó a encontrar mi estilo, me dio alas para dibujar, me enseñó lo que necesitaba, desgraciadamente nunca lo puede conocer en persona y darle las gracias...tengo tanto que agradecerle, si hace tantos años, no me hubiera topado con uno de sus comics, haría mucho tiempo que ya no dibujaría.

Adios Michael Turner, sigue asombrando con tu talento, allá donde estés, por que parte de él siempre estará presente en mis dibujos

I'm still under shock and I know many others are too.
I think words can't express what we feel right now.
Mike I never had the chance to meet you but you will be missed!! Rest in peace !!!

Michael Turner, what can I say? You were a talented man that lived life to it fullest. Every challenged you ever faced you faced head on. You did all that you could for your fans and your fans love you for it. I met you only last year and since that meating you have taught me not to let little or big challanges turn me away from my dreams. You have inspired alot of your fans and you touched alot of lifes. We will miss you dearly and will always remember you and your hard work.

Rest in Peace Mike

i am soooo sad...

only the fact that my kids are running around, am I not crying. They would ask questions I would know not where to begin...

My heart breaks a little...

Ofcourse I was wondering how much longer his body and spirits could compensate for this blackness that kept on coming back, but not one moment was I prepared by this news.

My heart weeps for the loved ones and friends left behind.

As I sit here, in Perth, Western Australia, helping to run Australia's Supanova convention, I can only reflect on the day I bought my first issue of Witchblade from Quality Comics in Hay Street.

That comic led me to create the Disciples of the Blade Witchblade fan-site. That site led me to get in touch with Top Cow, and in 1997 I met Michael for the first time at Top Cow's office off the Santa Monica Promenade.

Over the next few years, I got to know Michael a little. He was always kind, always gracious, and I was proud to count him as a friend. If it wasn't for him, much of what I've achieved in life so far would not have happened and for that I am eternally indebted to him.

I last saw Michael at Sydney Supanova 2005. His warmth and friendship never faltered. I had hoped I would make it back to LA sometime soon and catch up with him and the rest of the Aspen gang.

When I do, my glass will be raised in salute to this most talented man of great character, Mr. Michael Turner.

RIP Michael.

Chris Rattray.

my heartfelt condolences go out to michael's family both blood and aspen i still do not want to believe this even though i read all the condolences meeting michael turner more times than i can remember right now and him remembering me everytime and picking up our conversations right where the last one ended i learned that with all of the artists and creators out in the industry that michael is not one of the best but that he is the best not only in his art but in his outlook on life and everything and everybody he has ever met and in one way or another he has touched, inspired, or just plain put a smile on thier face i know that from meeting michael and talking and knowing him as little as i did that i am a better person for having known him and i am truely sad that my inspiration for wanting to be a better artist and someone living with a simular form of cancer a more dignified and graceful outlook on everything in life and what it has to offer as you did everyday of your truely to short life. michael you will be sadly missed but remembered as a hero not only by me but to everyone you have ever met.

they say we will all see each other again one day i hope they are right.

rest in peace !!!
