How come 2000ad is still up but heavy metal isn't?
Ok, so, I'm gonna generalize a LOT here and say a lot of very broad, probably wrong stuff, but here's what I believe:
Classic Heavy Metal/Metal Hurlant is always an artist first, story a very distant second kind of mag. Which sounds and is wonderful if you care about comic art (and you should), but doesn't really engender the kind of emotional attachment that brings people back every week to see how their favorite character is doing. It's an artist's showcase, a specialist magazine for a specialist audience that is always going to be smaller than the audience of the relatively more straightforward action/adventure sci-fi storytelling of 2000AD.
And remember that 2000AD was, for its first decade and a half of existence, aimed at literally children from 6-10. Yes, the art was gorgeous and insane and in some cases easily enjoyable by much of the same audience as HM/MH (in some cases directly inspired by it) but the large mass of readers were people who wanted to see what was going on with Dredd or Johnny Alpha or Rogue Trooper. Story and art were more head to head in terms of importance.
As an aside, that's something that I think happens a lot with British comics in general, especially ones that hire artists outside the Anglosphere: you get this mix of wild stylish French/Italian/Spanish art but with a lot more clear and straightforward action/adventure storytelling than what you see from those same artists. They lack the abstract weirdness of something like Le Garage Hermétique but gain more immediate appeal to people who are more interested in a story than in an artistic showcase. And in that way, they can also become gateways into the weirder stuff.
In a nutshell, Heavy Metal/Metal Hurlant is about letting artists do whatever they want however they want it, while 2000AD is about telling stories that people want to buy and continue buying. And one of those is always going to reach a wider audience than the other.

A new way of listening to Spyro music! This is the Spyro: A Hero’s Tail Game Soundtrack that has been slowed and had reverb added. Plus a tiny bit of mastering, some vinyl record effects and tweaks. Hope you enjoy!
