Where it came from
Abbott: 1979 is a supernatural historical comic book series published by Boom! Studios, written by Saladin Ahmed with art by Sami Kivelä. The series serves as a direct sequel to the original 2018 Abbott miniseries, continuing the story of Elena Abbott, a Black female investigative journalist in 1970s Detroit. It explores themes of systemic racism and social justice through the lens of dark fantasy and horror.
The creative team intended for the series to expand on the urban grit of the original story, utilizing a noir-inspired aesthetic to ground the fantastical elements in a realistic historical setting. The visual language, characterized by Kivelä's sharp lines and atmospheric coloring, was crafted to evoke the tension and paranoia of the late 1970s. The series was met with positive critical reception for its integration of socio-political commentary with pulp-style storytelling.
