Heavy Metal F.A.K.K.2. Authorized Movie Adaptation Book Review

About the Book: F.A.K.K. is an acronym for "Federation Assigned Ketogenic Killzone." It is a universal warning of extreme biohazard to all carbon-based lifeforms. F.A.K.K 2 indicates a hazard exponentially more dangerous. F.A.K.K 2 is also the name of a world so sublime-with a secret so great-that only the most terrifying classification could keep away potential despoilers. F.A.K.K. 2 is also the name taken by Julie, a young woman who seeks vengeance for the death of loved ones and the return of a kidnapped sister. Julie is a steely-eyed avenger who will not rest until justice prevails.

Our Take: This is the authorized novel based on the Heavy Metal 2 movie: F.A.A.K. 2.   Its over 250 pages that feature the story of the film.  In the middle of the book is some black and white artwork based on the film, mostly by the great Simon Bisley and a few pictures of the model for the character, the beautiful Julie Strain. 

I was amazed to see this still available on Amazon.com and the Heavy Metal website.  This one is rather rare, because it was produced by the short-lived publisher i Books.  This company ended quickly and in tragedy as the CEO perished in a car accident years ago.  The subsequent books, such as Ghostbusters: The Return, are hard to find.  This is a great read for anyone into Heavy Metal and a fun collectible to add to your library.
How to Buy: Amazon.com
