1st printing.

Written by Jim McCarthy. Art and cover by Brian Williamson.

By far the most successful of thrash metal's original big four, incredibly Metallica have now been performing for over twenty years.

Beginning with their initial underground success, Metallica: The Graphic Novel takes in all the highs (the amazing success of The Black Album, the nine Grammys, the over 100 million albums sold worldwide), the tragic lows (Cliff Burton's death in a bus crash, the rehab for alcohol and substance abuse), and the controversies (the Napster lawsuit).

Throughout, Brian Willamson's stunning artwork and Jim McCarthy's incisive script perfectly capture the rollercoaster tale of the Metallica story.

Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 160 pages, B&W.
