Heavy Metal (magazine)
''Heavy Metal'' is an American science fiction and fantasy comics magazine, known primarily for its blend of dark fantasy/science fiction and erotica. In the mid-1970s, while publisher Leonard Mogel was in Paris to jump-start the French edition of ''National Lampoon'', he discovered the French science-fantasy magazine ''Métal Hurlant'' which had debuted January 1975. The French title translates literally as "Howling Metal".
When Mogel licensed the American version, he chose to rename it, and ''Heavy Metal'' began in the U.S. In April 1977 as a glossy, full-color monthly. Initially, it displayed translations of graphic stories originally published in ''Métal Hurlant'', including work by Enki Bilal, Philippe Caza, Guido Crepax, Philippe Druillet, Jean-Claude Forest, Jean Giraud (aka Moebius) and Milo Manara. The magazine later ran Stefano Tamburini and Tanino Liberatore's ultra-violent ''RanXerox''. Since the color pages had already been shot in France, the budget to reproduce them in the U.S. version was greatly reduced.
==Artists==
''Heavy Metal''s high-quality artwork is notable. Work by international fine artists such as H. R. Giger and Esteban Maroto have been featured on the covers of various issues. Terrance Lindall's illustrated version of Milton's epic poem ''Paradise Lost'' appeared in the magazine in 1980.〔(Williamsburg Art & Historical Center ) with Lindall's illustrations for ''Paradise Lost''〕 Many stories were presented as long-running serials, such as those by Richard Corben, Pepe Moreno and Matt Howarth. Illustrator Alex Ebel contributed artwork over the course of his career. An adaptation of the film ''Alien'', written by Archie Goodwin and drawn by Walter Simonson, was published in the magazine in 1979.
The magazine was owned and published by Kevin Eastman, co-creator of the ''Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles''. Publication of the French magazine ceased in 1987. It resumed in July 2002 under the French name ''Métal Hurlant'', edited by Les Humanoïdes Associés. Eastman sold the magazine to digital and music veteran David Boxenbaum and film producer Jeff Krelitz in January 2014. Eastman will continue to serve as publisher of the magazine and is a minority investor in the new Heavy Metal.〔http://variety.com/2014/biz/news/heavy-metal-magazine-new-owner-hollywood-plans-1201062182/〕
