Heavy Metal magazine has been rebooted, again! We're bringing this issue to your attention for the reason that it features a brand new, 8-page, full color, Jim Rugg story, "Kecksburg UFO"!
We have just a few copies, all with the Frazetta "Swordsman of Mars" cover shown here.
Here's Heavy Metal's own hype-up:
The world’s greatest illustrated magazine is back, bringing bold new stories and legendary creators to the forefront of comics once again.
One of Heavy Metal’s original icons, Enki Bilal, returns with the English-language debut of his acclaimed BUG series. Fans of dark sci-fi and surrealism, rejoice.
Writer Michael Conrad (Hello Darkness, In Bloom) teams up with Greek comics legend Ilias Kyriazis (Collapser) for the all-new series Millstone.
Other returning legends include:
Antonio Segura & Jose Ortiz with a new Burton & Cyb story, Poor Monsters
Vicente Segrelles’ classic The Mercenary
The English-language debut of Janevsky’s cult sci-fi heroine Sixella
A new Valentina tale, written and illustrated by Sergio Gerasi
Heavy Metal also unleashes its own legendary lineup of characters, starting with the ultimate Taarakian warrior—Taarna. Her ongoing series will be penned by Leah Moore & John Reppion, with art by Anna Morozova.
