What is Metal Hurlant Chronicles? The best that I can tell is that it’s some kind of sci-fi epic with more than a little similarity to Heavy Metal. It seems to have begun as a science fiction anthology magazine published in France. Why am I even bringing it up? Well apparently it’s being adapted to a live action TV series with some interesting names, not the least of which is Michael Jai White. I can’t find an official website for the project but there is a Facebook page with a bunch of photos and I did find an article about the show. There’s this teaser trailer too. I think it’s worth a look. What do you think?

Metal Hurlant is the magazine Heavy Metal was originally based on. They are now wholly separated. Hurlant has tried to move in to international circles a couple times before, so this looks like another attempt.
Hopefully it succeeds.
Doesn’t Michael Jai White have another TV series he is doing with Tyler Perry? So he plans on being an actor on both?
