In 1994, Michael Turner began working for Top Cow Productions, co-creating the popular indie comic series Witchblade, before debuting his creator-owned series Fathom in 1998, which became the best-selling comic book of that year. In 2002, Michael left Top Cow Productions to start Aspen MLT LLC., and created the hit indie title Soulfire while continuing his work on Fathom. Beginning in the early 2000s, Turner made a significant artistic impact at DC, most notably through his interior and cover artwork on Superman/Batman, which helped introduce a new generation of fans to Supergirl. Turner would go on to be widely celebrated for his striking cover art featuring legendary DC Super Heroes including Superman, The Flash, and the Justice League. Turner died in 2008, at the age of 37, from complications from treatment for bone cancer.
“Mike’s work really energized the DCU when he was creating covers and interior work at DC. It really made the projects he chose something extra special and inspired his peers to take things to the next level,” said Hank Kanalz, Clover Press Publisher. “Bringing so much of his work together in one book is definitely something extra special.”
The DC Art Of… series debuted in 2025 with The DC Art of Jorge Jimenez, followed by The DC Art of Bruno Redondo in 2026. More books in The DC Art Of… series will be announced in the coming months.
