I was able to sneek 4 pieces in and hang them up on the wall. The opening went well, there were lines out the door to get in and people packed like sardeens to feel the force. The venue was cool, it was an old gas station turned into a Gallery on the other side of Fenway Park where Yawkey Way meets 1301 Boylston.

May the force be with you.

On October 20 the fall 2009 issue of Heavy Metal Magazine hit the shelves. It’s filled with the Sci Fi horror madness you could only find in Heavy Metal.

Heavy Metal Fall 2009

Working on the story was no easy feat, took be the better part of a year cranking out pages on my free time of 2006 and into 2007. Call of the Loc Nar is what I came up with and it’s loosely based off the Loc Nar Theme from the first Heavy Metal Movie, combined with some other themes. Fly too high and get burned by the sun, Moth to a flame, Don’t open that door. and delivered while I was vacationing on the dark side of the moon.

I must of been 6 years old when I first saw the Heavy Metal movie it warped my mind. At that age most things did, but Heavy Metal was one of the coolest cartoons Ive seen up till that point and it always stayed with me.

So go out to a Magazine rack and get your self a new issue of Heavy Metal, or an old one. It’s one of the reasons I draw in the first place.
