50 years after the debut of Metal Hurlant in France, the iconic and genre-defining publication is finally coming to the English language, and in bigger and bolder form than ever before: as a quarterly anthology published by Humanoids.
Each volume of Metal Hurlant will feature 272+ pages of a one-of-a-kind, otherworldly, literary experience, expertly curated from archival material from the original '70s and '80s run, along with top A-list and up-and-coming creators from around the globe.
"AS A KID IT REALLY WAS AN ELECTROSHOCK. I DON'T KNOW IF MY BRAIN MELTED OR EXPLODED... BUT I'M STILL HAUNTED BY THE POWER OF CREATIVITY THAT WAS IN THOSE BOXES." --DENIS VILLENEUVE, speaking with NPR about his intro to sci-fi via boxes of Metal Hurlant
