Description

One full turn of the sun since Heavy Metal returned in full stride with renewed force, the magazine moves forward as Gladiatrix by Dan Gordon and John Stanisci and Ink by Charley Parlapánides, Vlas Parlapánides, and Marco Failla continue to unfold, and Cold Dead War by Craig Wilson closes a chapter. Dark Horizons by Philippe Pelaez and Benjamin Blasco-Martinez begins its run, a post-apocalyptic science fiction series set on Kepler-452 b, where a forbidden zone has claimed every expedition sent beyond it. Thellus by Simona Mogavino and Carlos Gómez makes its debut as a new science fiction saga, introducing a myth-infused world ruled by absolute power and laying the groundwork for a broader story of domination and resistance. Also featured are Blue Angel, a near-future military science fiction story by Philippe Gauckler, The Callistan Menace, a classic science fiction adaptation adapted by Fernando Fernández, and Turing Test for Humans by Fernando Dagnino. Beyond these highlights, the issue includes a varied range of additional features that reinforce Heavy Metal’s bold editorial mix.

Description

This graphic novel serves as an officially licensed expansion of Interpol's 2004 album, Antics. Inspired by their music video for the hit song Evil, the story expands on Norman and takes a closer look at his life. Norman’s life is forever changed in the aftermath of a devastating car accident. Awakening days later in a hospital bed, he learns of the damage caused by the wreck. But his grief and guilt are compounded by something far more surreal: when he looks in the mirror, a puppet stares back. What follows is a haunting journey through identity, isolation, and the fragile threads that bind us to the world. ANTICS is a dark, dreamlike tale that weaves psychological tension with melancholic beauty.

SPYCRAFT MEETS SPELLCRAFT in North Valley is a slick, James Bond-style adventure fused with the supernatural suspense of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. This thrilling comic adaptation of the hit novel by author Blake Northcott (Barbarella, Catwoman) features art by Giuseppe Cafaro (Suicide Squad, Witchblade). Father Division, a CIA black-ops unit clandestinely hunts – and eliminates – the most dangerous threat in history – MAGICK. On a routine assignment, Agent Malek discovers a spell book more powerful than a nuclear weapon is loose amongst the public. As the world continues to spiral, it’s business as usual in North Valley—a sleepy suburb known for little more than golf courses and overpriced real estate... until a series of murders casts a shadow over the town. When Calista Scott investigates the death of her classmate, she uncovers the most dangerous weapon in existence – The North Valley Grimoire. “I love this book. Blake Northcott has seamlessly shifted genres and proven she’s as masterful in magic and fantasy as she was in science-fiction. Don’t pick this up unless you’re prepared to not put it down.” - Mark Millar (Writer of Marvel's Civil War, Kick-Ass and Kingsman)
