Heavy Metal has survived the roller-coaster media industry for 44 years, and now it’s making a move into nonfungible tokens (NFTs) in a partnership with Crypto.com to ensure that it keeps on going.

The iconic publisher of fantasy, science fiction, and horror media plans to tap the monetization potential of NFTs, which use the transparent and secure ledger of the blockchain to authenticate one-of-a-kind items. Working with Crypto.com, Heavy Metal will be able to create rare digital collectibles that it can sell to its fans and collectors.
