Heavy Metal Special Editions #1

In Anibal Cinq: The Last 10 Women I've Known, a sexually charged, ape-like assassin is sent on a mission to eliminate the queen of a race of space-amazons, all orchestrated by a wheelchair-bound elder and his bionic young lieutenant. Written by Alejandro Jodorowsky and illustrated in bold, surreal detail by George Bess—whose inks and colors shape the story’s fever-dream atmosphere—this Heavy Metal Special Edition is a mind-bending blend of eroticism, sci-fi, and absurdity. The cover, by Massimiliano Frezzato, captures the tale’s unsettling, otherworldly tone.
