''Métal hurlant'' (literal translation: "Howling Metal") is a French comics anthology of science fiction and horror comics stories, created in December 1974 by comics artists Jean Giraud (better known as ''Mœbius'') and Philippe Druillet together with journalist-writer Jean-Pierre Dionnet and financial director Bernard Farkas.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://variety.com/2014/tv/news/syfy-acquires-french-skein-metal-hurlant-exclusive-1201120439/ )〕 The four were collectively known as "Les Humanoïdes Associés" (United Humanoids), which became the name of the publishing house releasing ''Métal hurlant''. It was published in the United States by National Lampoon under the title ''Heavy Metal''. ISSN is 0245-590X, and 0336-4747 (Métal Hurlant Aventure). ==Overview== The magazine was originally released quarterly; it consisted of 68 pages, of which only 18 were in colour. Contributors included Moebius and Druillet, depicting such characters as Arzach and Lone Sloane. Later issues featured Richard Corben, Alejandro Jodorowsky, Enki Bilal, Caza, Serge Clerc, Alain Voss, Berni Wrightson, Milo Manara, Frank Margerin, and many others. It became bi-monthly with No. 7 and monthly with No. 9. Apart from comics, the magazine contained articles about science fiction books and movies, as well as music and videogame reviews. ''Métal hurlant'', emphasising complex graphics, cinematic imagery and surreal storylines, was highly influential throughout the world as one of the first mature expressions of "adult" comic book making. It ceased publication in July 1987. ''Métal hurlant'' began publishing again in July 2002 by Humanoids Publishing, with a French, English, Spanish and Portuguese version, under the French name. As a "two-headed", transatlantic (France-US) magazine, led by Fabrice Giger in Los Angeles, it published original short stories, sometimes related to existing or to be published comic books. Its aim was to discover young creators and promote the products from the publisher. This incarnation of the magazine ceased publication with issue No. 14, dated November/December 2004. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Métal hurlant」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
