Issue #405 (Iron Maiden): Magazine + Exclusive Iron Maiden T-Shirt

Up the Irons! It’s Iron Maiden’s big birthday, so join us as we celebrate 50 years of the UK’s greatest metal export. Plus, we’ve teamed up with the iconic outfit to offer this official exclusive T-shirt.

Plus, we bring you all-new, exclusive interviews with Bruce and Steve as they reflect on their incredible career so far… and what comes next. We also dig into the evolution of Eddie, because no Maiden story would be complete without him!
