Abbott: 1979 #2

Set against a vivid clash of crimson and emerald, the cover of Abbott: 1979 #2 from BOOM! Studios pulls you straight into the supernatural tension at the heart of Saladin Ahmed and Sami Kivelä's series. A woman is caught in the grip of swirling, ribbon-like forces while a ghostly clawed hand looms above her — Taj Francis's cover art renders the threat with an unsettling, otherworldly beauty. It's a striking second issue that makes clear Elena Abbott's world in 1979 Detroit is one where darkness presses in from every angle.
