here are a few more I found, most are just the same AP wire source feed:   

Las Vegas Sun

New York Times glad to see a more lenghty, detailed obituary in this one

Daily Life couple of links along this one

USA Today Pop Candy real short one

Fox News

washington post

haven't seen anything on tv news. I stumbled upon a Megan Fox print interview from Entertainment Tonight for the Transformers premiere and she mentions being a big comic book geek, Michael Turner's Fathom being her favorite.
Speaking of Hollywood, is there going to be any reaction from NBC, since you guys work on the "Heroes" online comic series?

MT was a favorite of mine, even though I never had the opportunity to meet him, I was at Philly Con with hopes of the chance to speak an encouraging word to him. I also have a bone cancer and felt a kinship with him due to our Southern roots. God Bless you Michael. Thanks for all your work and the joy it brought.
