- Part one of a long series on both Metal Hurlant and Heavy Metal illustrated science fiction and fantasy magazines. Métal Hurlant was formed in France in 1974 by Moebius, Druillet, Dionnet, and Farkas aka Les Humanoides Associes. Two years later, National Lampoon would publish Heavy Metal magazine which more or less reprinted the comic book stories from Metal Hurlant. We take a good look at the new 290 page illustrated book "Metal Hurlant 1975 - 1984" the prime early years of the magazine featuring art by Moebius, Druillet, Caza, Claveloux, Bode, and stories by Dan O'Bannon, Dionnet, and more.

A pleasant stroll down memory lane!
Great review. It’s nice to see the magazine being covered for an English speaking audience. Being a teenager in France when the original Metal Hurlant came out, it was clearly so important. I remember in the late 70’s and on, people would just have to say “did you read the last Metal?” and everyone my age/generation would know exactly that they were talking about Metal Hurlant… crazy exciting times.
Thank you, Patrick. When I was a teen here in the U.S., it was the same with Heavy Metal. People loved it and everyone talked about it constantly. We had never seen such a thing devoted to science fiction and fantasy. Metal Hurlant truly did create a world wide revolution in comic art thanks to the great ones, Druillet, Dionnet, Farkas, and Giraud.
Great job. In 1975 I picked up a ' coverless' copy of metal hurrlant in the bargain box. From best of two worlds. A comic book/ head shop. Looking for Frank Frazetta stuff. And held onto it like grim death. ❤😂😂
Thank you. When I was a teen in 1978 I picked up my first copy of Metal Hurlant from Bud Plant at a convention, might have been Worldcon (Iguanacon) in Az. I never realized Bud Plant was the exclusive U.S. Metal Hurlant distributor in the early days.
Its been decades since I have seen some of those pages...Thanks
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Thanks for this sum up. It's nicely put together.
Thank you, i'm glad you enjoyed it.
@@horrormike Jean Pierre.D published his memoires. There is hours of interview on youtube (in french).
Good overview, Mike. It's nice to see the building blocks of Metal Hurlant. I was unaware of most of this information. Thanks! See you at 7:00 to discuss some flicks.
Thanks, man, I appreciate it!. Sunday should be a great show, got a few really cool and somewhat obscure things to show from the Heavy Metal universe.
Nice vid. Very informative!
Thank you, Comic-Jutsu. I just subscribed to your channel, it looks very cool.
@@horrormike Thanks! Same to you!
I just picked up a copy. I had no idea this volume existed Mike so thank you for that.
The absense of Corben makes some sense. This was kept all European since that is the root. As loved and admired by hos contemporaries as Corben was, I think they kept it core only to keep the French flavor.
Then there is Bode being there so...
Yes, the inclusion of the American Bode makes the Euro argument moot. As I said, it was probably a rights issue seeing that Corben was a huge aspect of Metal Hurlant for years.
Just got caught up great video Horror Mike a lot of info here I was unaware of🤘🏽 see you at the nooner today !!
Thank you, Jacob, see you at noon!
Alot of the stories are were reprinted in heavy metal magazine here in the USA 🇺🇸the long tommorow was made into a graphic novel later on
True, Philip, and it was a rather short graphic novel at that. The story is only about 20 pages so the graphic novels they released came with a few other stories to beef it up.
Titan books is putting out both the Bilal and druillet library hardcovers
That's great, they should also do hardcovers on Nicollet, Claveloux, Caza, Suydam, Serge Clerc, and Corben, to name a few of the original Metal Hurlant artists.
@@horrormike dark horse is doing the corben library
At one time heavy metal was accepting submitted material from unknown artists but some of the stuff was really good
according to the website, they are going to start accepting submissions again for the new Heavy Metal mag - shop.heavymetal.com/pages/coming-soon
Hi Mike fantastic art & detail yeah that opening story about the alien spy was funny. That character does remind me of Peter Laurie i never heard of Metal Hurlant until you started talking about it. I was always aware of Heavy Metal though. Mike i don't know if you're aware but the audio would cut off for a few seconds & then turn back on quite often. Speak to you later today on your Friday stream.
Yes indeed, Metal Hurlant was the original magazine from France, then Heavy Metal was released in the U.S. two years later. The sound is not cutting off, there's just no sound there so I cut those areas out completely which kills the background ambient sound. Probably why is sounds cut off lol. See ya tonight!
@@horrormike oh ok that explains it. It sounded like a possible audio problem.
@1:12 is the narration saying "artist Vasarely does not inspire me."? As in Victor Vasarely? I couldn't find that quote by Ray Bradbury anywhere on the internet. Is that verified?
@1:16 "need this new generation that I would compare to Hogarth door Goya or the raphaelites " Pronunciation is a bit confusing because its a french name Gustave Dore.
You need to consult the makers of the book.
I’ll be back
