From Aspen Comics’ Vince Hernanadez:

Hello all,

Turner had been dealing with recent health complications arisen in the past few weeks. More details concerning Turner's passing, and services, will be given shortly.

He was one of the more exciting artists of recent years, and despite his affection for more outlandish bad girl and bad girl art, he was for the most part a fave of mine. He’ll be missed.
