A penciller that become and originator of he's own art.


It was in San Diego, Comic-con 98 where i was making line, to meet and greet, Michael turner, i was excited, to get all the fathom comics, sign. It took 20minute for him to come. Then suddenly he came, he and the rest of top cow. by that time i quiz my comics, for just admiring not only he's art but he creativity. I mean i read a article in wizard, about him, what inspire this man, to bring life the ocean, and give it a story. Was he love of water, and the many wonders that it have. So i begin to asking how did take, to make this comic. Anxious, i lay the books to the table, later he smile to me, and start smiling, and saying: Hi.
Later i ask the question. by the time he finish signing my comics, some one push me away, meaning he didnt answer it. That's when he shouted to me"one year and half", i heard it then i turn smiling. Michael was a man with spirit and persistent, of what he love to do, he always was faithful to he's work, and he's art. He become he's own boss by founding Aspen comics. When it came to printing their 1st comic, they started with a vote, between 2 creation of him Ekos or soulfire. every time i visited the wizard site, voted for soul, which later on won. Bought the whole series, just by reaching issue#7. But off course he was a very busy artist, doing other drawing for different company's. So i say goodbye to Michael, and he's many worlds he made, by just holding in his hand a pencil, exhibiting the many ways to make a world.
THANKS.
