The late Michael Turner was undoubtedly one of the most popular comic book artists of the 2000s, with a proven track record of driving up sales on a series every time his art adorned the cover. Clover Press previously celebrated Turner's Marvel resume with The Marvel Art of Michael Turner, and now they're back with The DC Art of Michael Turner.

With the crowdfunding campaign for The DC Art of Michael Turner now live, IGN can exclusively reveal a preview of the Superman/Batman-themed art portfolio included in the promotion. Check out the slideshow gallery below to see some of the gorgeous pieces contained within:

The DC Art of Michael Turner is a 200-page 9" x 12" hardcover that reprints the artist's work on titles like Superman/Batman, The Flash, Justice League, Identity Crisis. The book includes an introduction by Ghost Machine editor-in-chief and former DC Comics Chief Creative Officer Geoff Johns, as well as commentary from Jeph Loeb, Brad Meltzer, and Dan DiDio.

"We are so thrilled to be collaborating with the incredible team at Clover Press again to bring everyone the upcoming artbook, The DC Art of Michael Turner!” said Frank Mastromauro, Aspen Comics President, in a statement. “This Deluxe Edition Hardcover will be the most comprehensive collection of Michael’s DC artwork we have ever put together, ranging from his most popular covers and illustrations to some rarely seen and produced art. After months of preparing and assembling this hardcover, we are extremely excited and honored to bring this book to the fans and keep Michael Turner’s legacy alive and thriving!"

“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 Kickstarter campaign for The DC Art of Michael Turner is live now.

This is the third in Clover Press' series of DC-themed art books, after The DC Art of Jorge Jiménez and The DC Art of Bruno Redondo.
