I mean, he's even voiced by John Candy in it. Yes, John Candy played Den. I couldn't believe it when I looked it up. He pulled off a really good tough guy voice.
@@chaoticiannunez2419 Yup. A comedian! There weren't even interested in giving it an honest effort as a drama. All too often that's been the case with graphic-page-to screen-adaptations in Hollywood. Various Japan studios have suceeding in faithfully adapting hundreds of manga to anime. Heavy Metal couldn't even manage one movie. Even with an army of (directionless) animators.
Great video and was always a fan of Den from the movie. Is there graphic novel at all that night include the whole collection? If so please comment below, thank you.
Dark Horse are reissuing the entire series in hardback volumes. The first Neverwhere is out already, the second Muvovem is released today 1/8/24. Next two in September and October.✌
OK, what I don't get is if David Ellis Norman (Dan) was an engineer on Earth than why hasn't he used his knowledge & skill to craft things to help him in his battles instead of fighting like a common uneducated Thug?
Like Spock in ' City on the Edge of Forever ' , all Den has to work with are " stone knives and bearskins " Just because you know exactly how to use vacuum tubes, doesn't mean you can refine tungsten or berillium from native ores, or blow the necessary glass vacuum envelopes. I doubt there will ever be one man who can reinvent all technological progress.
The heavy metal segment is genius
Richard Corben is one of my all time favorite artists! Great video! Thanks!
Thanks to you for watching and commenting
I would love to see a live action movie of this. In the right hands this could be amazing.
The Den segment of the Heavy Metal movie has a comedic tone, compared to the dramatic tone of Corben pages.

Is Nomad from Storm comic series inspired by Den?
Ask em
@@Vomitbukkake Unfortunately Don Lawrence died 20 years ago. I thought maybe another fan might know.
My favourite is muvovum
That shit is ridiculous!
Den saga was left unfinished, what happen with pucca and her boys?, and with uncle dan ?
There was a follow up in the Shadows On The Grave anthology.
I bet editing to hide "bits" was difficult.😂.
You can be sure of that!
Based on R.E Howards - Almuric.
Loosely.

Not enough tools to actually make anything plus it wasn’t as convenient
He remembers nothing but his initials.
