Abbott: 1979 #5

By Saladin Ahmed and Sami Kivelä

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.
