very sad. Sirac and I had drinks with him once at the CDCC many years ago. He really did seem to have a positive attitude all the time. I asked Sirac why he was limping at the time, that was the first time I heard he had cancer.

Sad news. :cry:

I especially liked Turner’s Superman/Batman run and the covers for Identity Crisis—he will be well remembered.

Sigh, this is a very sad news. I loved his work on the early Witchblade issues. He will definitely be missed. :(
