Heavy Metal magazine 2025
I held back from purchasing issue 1 until I could see what Fred's Heavy Metal Fan Page blog had to say. Fred liked issue 1, so I've gone ahead and added the magazine to my Pulls; not a trivial thing, as each issue costs $15. The magazine currently is scheduled for quarterly publication and each issue certainly is fat, over 230 pages (with essentially no advertising).
I just picked up issue 2 and it seems to be adhering to the course of issue 1, which is good.
In issue 2 Forte provides an editorial in which he lays out he wants to do with the magazine. Although I have to roll my eyes at the use of the noun 'erotica' (let's face, 'tits and ass' would be much much more accurate) I think Forte is heading in the right direction:
Those who want to get an idea of what's being published in Heavy Metal 2025 are directed to the post at Fred's blog. If you were disappointed with the much-ballyhooed Grant Morrison incarnation of the magazine, this newest edition of the franchise looks to be more promising, and I'm putting down my money for it.
