ABBOTT: 1979 (2023)

On the eve of the 1980s and the Reagan Administration, Detroit is burdened with an oppressive darkness-both political and supernatural. Dejected and tough tabloid reporter Elena Abbott, who previously defeated the occult forces responsible for her husband's death, must dig herself out from rock bottom if she's going to save Detroit from the Umbra, one last time... As the trilogy's final chapter by Hugo Award-nominated novelist Saladin Ahmed (Miles Morales: Spider-Man, Black Bolt) and artist Sami Kivelä (Beautiful Canvas) opens, Elena will have to contend with the dark cloud hanging over Detroit... and over her personally.

It's too late. The Umbra has been unleashed on Detroit, and Elena will need all the help she can get from an old friend if she's going to succeed. And stunningly, Elena discovers that she is truly unique, and has power beyond her imagination...

Elena gets a call from Elmer, her brother, and only together will they be able to face the Umbra that possesses him. It will take everything Elena has to tap into her power, dispel the threat, and save his life.

In the penultimate issue, Elena prepares for the final battle with the Umbra, a massive shadow in the Detroit River under the Ambassador Bridge. But Elena is not alone. Those that bring the light to many, will bring all the light together in the end.

In the pulse-pounding conclusion to the Abbott saga, Elena must save Detroit from the Umbra... one last time. To defeat a seemingly unstoppable darkness, Elena will need to push herself to harness her Light power more than she ever has before, and make a sacrifice that just might break her. The Abbott trilogy has all been leading to this as the iconic series from Hugo Award-nominated novelist Saladin Ahmed (Miles Morales: Spider-Man, Black Bolt) and artist Sami Kivelä (Beautiful Canvas) delivers an epic and moving conclusion to a story five years in the making.
