Tung metall #7/1986
In "Den [Överraskning från vännen]," the aging Sebastian finds himself under the care of Benedetti, a man he’s grown close to, after being placed in his home by government order. As Sebastian contemplates a final act of generosity—selling his organs to fund a peaceful end—he’s met with unexpected kindness and quiet devotion from Benedetti and his partner, who go to great lengths to ensure his final days are meaningful. Written and illustrated by Horacio Altuna, this poignant story unfolds with emotional depth, while Luis Royo’s haunting cover captures its quiet intensity.
In "Tur och retur," the aging Sebastian, under the order of the minister, is taken in by Marc Benedetti. As Sebastian contemplates ending his life at the city’s eutanasicenter and selling his organs to support Benedetti, the two men and Benedetti’s lover navigate a quiet, intimate journey of care and connection in the final days.
In the year 2023, Alcide Nikopol awakens in a Paris transformed—frozen for thirty years in space, now plunged into a city ruled by a fascist regime under guvernören Jean-Ferdinand Choublanc. The sky above the spaceport is dominated by a pyramid-shaped alien vessel, home to ancient Egyptian gods demanding fuel from a crumbling society. Amid the chaos, Nikopol encounters Horus, who has turned against his fellow deities, setting the stage for a fragile alliance in a world where myth and tyranny collide.
In a future where humans wear protective shells to survive bloodthirsty insects, a young couple dares to remove theirs, drawn together by love in defiance of the danger. Their choice leads to a moment of shocking revelation—one that leaves them both shaken, forever changed by what they’ve uncovered.
