June 26, 2008 - New Heavy Metal Issue
The new issue of Heavy Metal is out. Summer 2008 is now available. MetalTV.com has some sample pages from it. (On a side note; sorry that this update isn't up to my normal standards (I haven't updated the magazine list yet, etc). I'm slowly trying to get things together, so I can make better updates while I'm away.) Update July 1, 2008 - I've updated my magazine list and such. I finally got all my things together, so I can start making proper updates again. My only enemy now is time.

May 30, 2008 - This Site Will Be Dormant For A While
I thought this might happen someday soon, and it looks like it's going to happen now. This will be my last post for a while. Unfortunately my personal career life is going to keep me busy for a while. Unfortunately I also don't know how long that will be for. It might only be a few days; in which case it won't really matter. It might be for a few weeks, in which case I might miss a bit of news while I'm gone. Or it might even last a few months, in which case a lot will probably happen while I'm away. But if it's going to be that long, I'll probably find some other way to update the site. Be back soon. Update June 06, 2008 - Be back around late July.

May 19, 2008 - FAQ Update
There's a question that I've been asked a few times, so I've updated my FAQ with it.

Q: I loved reading �on Flux in Heavy Metal, but I forget which issues it was in; do you know?
A: Although there are �on Flux comics and such out there, they were never in or published by Heavy Metal. Although there was an
interview with the creator, Peter Chung, in the March 1997 issue. His illustration style is also influenced by M�bius, among others.

May 09, 2008 - War Of The Worlds Voice Talent
We now know many of the voices in the War Of The Worlds movie! For details, here's a quote from Joe Pearson:

Peter Wingfield (Methos from "Highlander") recorded for our main man, Captain Eric Wells.
Adrian Paul (Duncan McCleod himself) did the voice of the irascible Corporal, Patrick O'Brien.
Adam Baldwin from "Firefly" and "Full Metal Jacket" (he was "Animal Mother") chewed the scenery magnificently as the crazed
militia survivor, Wilson.
The beautiful and classy, Elizabeth Gracen (Raven herself) voiced Lieutenant Jennifer Carter.
Blues Man supreme, James Byrnes (Joe Dawson from the Highlander series) nailed Secretary of War, Theodore Roosevelt, to the wall.
Beau Billingslea (Jet from "Cowboy Beebop") gave a deep voiced gravitas to Sergeant Abraham Douglas.
James Arnold Taylor (Obi Wan in the upcoming "Clone Wars" movie and series and Leonardo from the last TMNT movie)
did an amazing drunken German Officer and many more.
and Joey D'Auria, actor and magician extraordinaire, took flight with his terrific Captain Manfred Von Richthoffen.

For a few more small details about the movie, you can also visit Adrian Paul's Official Web Site. I've updated my movie page with the info. I've also added 3 more design illustrations. I've also decided to change the way I do pre-release movie images, and so you can now view all the images in their original size, instead of shrunk down like I would normally do.

April 07, 2008 - As Seen On TV
I've updated my list of As Seen On TV sightings. In the 2001 movie, Address Unknown, near the end, in Eunok's room, the American soldier sets his gun down on a Fall 2000 issue of Heavy Metal.

March 07, 2008 - As Seen On TV
Heavy Metal isn't mentioned too often in the media, however I do have a list of As Seen On TV sightings that include a few movies and other such things that HM is briefly in. Thanks to Roy (again) on the HM forums for catching another one in the movie, Clerks where about 1/3 into the movie, the clerks are talking about annoying customers. In the video store, behind one customer is a copy of Heavy Metal: The Movie VHS. Which is interesting because Clerks was made in 1994, but the official VHS didn't legally come out until 1996. Know of any other HM media sightings? Email me.
