This is very interesting. Not only did they bring in a guest editor for this issue, but it’s the second 200 page issue in a row. On top of that, I would like to direct your attention to the fine print at the bottom of the masthead where it’s pointed out that there is a new CEO of Heavy Metal. After five years, the old guy has been bought out by a new group. Just in time to hit the ground running in 2020. Great timing.
