Heavy Metal Magazine Brings Down ‘The Axe’; Teams With Fall Out Boy’s Joe Trohman & Actor Brian Posehn on Comic Series

Fall Out Boy guitarist Joe Trohman and actor Brian Posehn (Rob Zombie’s The Devil’s Rejects, “The Sarah Silverman Program”, “The Big Bang Theory”) have teamed up with Heavy Metal Magazine to create new comic book series “The Axe”, coming in early 2022, reports Variety.

Said to be a cross between Army of Darkness and The Goonies, the horror-comedy adventure “Follows three nerdy, skatepunk, metalhead teenagers who steal an old, cursed guitar that opens a portal to an interdimensional hell-scape called Sheol. In Sheol, the kids must fight off hideous ancient creatures while trying to get back to Earth.”

“We put horror and heavy metal music in a blender with likable kids as our protagonists,” Posehn said.

“’The Axe’ merges two of my favorite things — horror and comedy — but it has heart,” adds Trohman. “We intentionally wove in themes of broken childhood, abandonment and coming-of-age throughout the book, and I am proud of the dimensions within this story.
 But on the fun side, what we were able to do with pushing the gore, the jokes, the darkness, it’s just everything I’ve really wanted to do on a wish-fulfillment level.”

Posehn and Trohman also recuited Scott Koblish (“Deadpool,” “Anthrax: Among the Living”) as illustrator, while Diego Fichera will color “The Axe”.

Heavy Metal Magazine is also currently developing “The Axe” as a screen adaptation as part of a slate of projects based on original IP.

“The Axe” will premiere in Heavy Metal Magazine as a serial in early 2022 and will then be collected into a comic book series and ultimately a trade paperback.
