What garbage.

Love death + robots is not at all similar or related to Heavy Metal.

And the movie already had a sequel, it was called Heavy Metal 2000.

Came here to say exactly that - this article is bullshit. I love LD&R, but aside from it being animated there's no similarity with HM. Some of the episodes are wildly different in theme, feel, and style. I don't see how anyone can call it a "spiritual successor" in good faith. Hell, as a diverse collection of stories and styles, it's hard to relate it to any one movie or show at all.
