Out of the five stories, two will cover Heavy Metal cult heroes, “Taarna” and “Cold Dead War” and appear on the main magazine. The other three will be standalone novels covering horror, fantasy and science fiction. This will give the collaborators an opportunity for their works to appear in Heavy Metal’s highly-revered magazines. While the technical details of the collaborative framework will come out later, this promises to be a groundbreaking set of publications.
