Métal Hurlant #10

This 2024 installment of the revived Métal Hurlant anthology arrives under the evocative subtitle La Mécanique du Grain de Sable, gathering an impressive roster of contributors including Chabouté, Fabrizio Dori, Bertrand Mandico, Richard Marazano, Frank Margerin, Alan Moore, Munuera, Gregory Panaccione, Sandrine Revel, and Victoire Tuaillon. The striking cover draws the eye into a vast, sterile interior space where two small figures sit at a table far below the looming, enigmatic face of a bald, wide-eyed android or synthetic being that dominates the upper half of the composition — a quietly unsettling contrast of scale and intimacy. With its signature blend of bold European sci-fi vision and literary ambition, this tenth issue is a compelling showcase of where the legendary anthology magazine stands in 2024.
