Metal Hurlant is also the French title of the film Heavy Metal and the show Monster Garage.

Métal Hurlant ("Howling metal" in literal translation) is the name of a French science fiction comics magazine, published between 1974 and 1987. It was also released in Italy, Germany, England, the United States (under the title of Heavy Metal) and Spain.

Editorial trajectory

It was created in December 1974 by Moebius, Jean-Pierre Dionnet and Philippe Druillet, shortly after they formed a group with the collective name of Les Humanoïdes Associés. According to the first, in it «we find the entire range of human opinions, all social discourses; the opening is the only presupposition".
