For these artists, exclusive merchandise featuring unique variant covers will be made available for fans from both universes. Further information will be announced in conjunction with each release.

Each special edition will feature a variant cover spotlighting a different metal band, an introduction from the band and an exclusive interview. The seven issue series event will launch in 13 countries in March and roll out throughout 2021.

As well as Megadeth, Ghost and Ozzy Osbourne, other featured artists include Lacuna Coil, Opeth, Sepultura and Dream Theater.
