Where Will Grant Morrison, Alex De Campi And Bilal Be Hanging Out Next Wednesday

Love Is Love isn't the only anthology of note out next Wednesday. Nor is Civil War II #8 the only book with a bevy of exciting names. But there's another which might have a bevy of exciting names.

I understand that next week's Heavy Metal Magazine #2845, featuring the first chapter of Grant Morrison's Savage Sword Of Christ, is selling out and won't be reprinted. Because, apparently, Heavy Metal Magazine doesn't do that sort of thing. But they do have copies available direct from the publisher. With a Taarna cover by Luis Royo, a Savage Christ cover by Kiss album artist Ken Kelly and Pyramid Contact by Iron Maiden Eddie creator Derek Riggs.

And we're also getting a greater idea of what's actually inside.
