Heavy Metal Magazine #10
"Sindbad in the Land of the Jinn" is a wordless, atmospheric tale from Heavy Metal Magazine #10 (1979), a striking visual journey through a mysterious past. Written by Sabine and illustrated with haunting detail by Halmos—whose inks bring the dreamlike world to life—the story follows a village woman who encounters a floating light with no source, setting off a quiet but profound chain of reactions among her neighbors and a local church leader. The cover, by Derek Rigg, captures the tale’s enigmatic mood with its intricate, otherworldly design.
