INABILITY TO ADD ADD-ONS OR ADJUST PLEDGES

Some backers have said they can't add add-ons or adjust pledges- this may be a Kickstarter mobile glitch. Please try to do the same actions on a desktop and see if there's any difference. We are in contact with KS support about this.

NEW ADD-ONS ADDED

COLD DEAD WAR sneak peak -- SKETCH COVER 10-PACKS-LUCA STRATI PENCIL VARIANT ADD-ON SHIPPING FIX-New Add-ons
3 months ago – Mon, Dec 02, 2024 at 10:23:16 AM

Hey everyone-thanks again for all the support. We are trying to answer the questions in the comments as they come in. Adding new add-ons as we get inventories from our warehouse. Here's some update news:

COLD DEAD WAR sneak peak-

Written and illustrated by Craig Wilson---This episode of Cold Dead War takes place right after the events of the Heavy Metal film. If you watched the "B-17" sequence, we see the pilot get surrounded by zombies, but did he die? Or did he escape? You'll have to read the issue to find out!

Written and illustrated by Craig Wilson

FRANK FRAZETTA COVER ADD-ON TYPO

The Frank Frazetta cover add-on graphic has the text "Kickstarter Exclusive" this is an error that we neglected to fix before we launched. The Frank Frazetta cover was never assigned to be a "Kickstarter Exclusive" and it didn't have this text in the reward tier or in the story graphics. The Frank Frazetta will be available in comic shops and on the HM webstore when we release the magazine in April 2025.

________________________________

LUCA STRATI PENCIL VARIANT ADD-ON SHIPPING FIX

THIS ADD-ON HAD AN ERROR IN THE SHIPPING FEES--THEY WERE TOO HIGH $10-US $10-CANADA $2-REST OF WORLD (THIS IS CORRECT)

Feel free to cancel your pledge to the high shipping and grab the lower shipping item. We will try and reach out to each backer one by one if there are still some backers that don't realize the error.

ARTIST SKETCH SKETCH COVER PACK

We added a 10-pack of sketch covers--do we need to add a 5-pack?

NEW ADD-ONS ADDED

Every week (and even daily) we'll be adding new finds from the HM warehouse--here's last weeks additions as well as some new ones in the last few days

FULLY FUNDED IN 7 MINUTES?! IT JUST GOES TO SHOW … OUR FANS ROCK!- Heavy Metal #1 Sneak peaks-New Add-ons
4 months ago – Mon, Nov 25, 2024 at 03:29:51 PM

FULLY FUNDED IN 7 MINUTES?! IT JUST GOES TO SHOW … OUR FANS ROCK!

 The team at Heavy Metal have been absolutely blown away and humbled by your shared love for the brand and our plans for its return! The fact so many of you turned out for us – despite all the challenges in our way – says so much about the kind of fans we have, and your appetite for the incredible illustrated sci-fi, fantasy and horror that we plan to bring you.

 You’ve seen our first wave of contributors and creators, but just wait until you see what’s lurking in the wings … You’ll need to wait a little longer, we’re afraid, but for now please accept our heartfelt thanks for what has truly been an overwhelmingly metal day for us! As it stands, we are now over 3500% funded just over 7 hours into the campaign.

 One of our biggest surprises was your appetite for the hardcover edition of this historic first issue, so – in response to the many emails and requests we’ve been sent – we are opening that tier up to everyone who orders during the Kickstarter campaign. This hardcover variant won’t be sold anywhere else, and will remain a true collectible, but we can’t say no to those of you who missed out on it earlier today.

 So, if you had your eyes and heart set on getting the hardcover version of the magazine then now is your chance. That Greg Hildebrandt cover absolutely pops on the shiny hardcover stock we’re using, and we know you’re going to be pleased with your purchase – plus it’s the perfect way to commemorate this landmark issue of the legendary magazine that you all know and love.

 We’re going to rest soon and get some well-earned sleep after a long time cooking up this campaign and its stellar line-up, but know that we retire for the night with the deepest of gratitude and a burning commitment to deliver the best magazine we possibly can for you all to enjoy. Keep spreading the word, tell your friends, and get ready for the triumphant return of Heavy Metal!
