Heavy Metal #8 pushes deeper into strange new worlds with a potent mix of science fiction, fantasy, and dark adventure. Taarna charges deeper into Incarnatus AD 2086, while Titans reaches the conclusion of its first book. Millstone, Ink, and Gladiatrix continue their ongoing sagas, alongside the next chapter of West Fantasy. Rounding out the issue is an eclectic lineup of short stories, including Valentin Ramón's The Desert We're In, The Horseman by John Layman, Burton & Cyb, Asimov's Light Verse, The Keening, Date Club, and more strange, provocative visions from across the Heavy Metal universe.
