About the series
In 2006, Sanoma launched Abadazad, a three-issue comic series that blended classic children's fantasy with a modern, metafictional twist. The story follows a young girl who discovers a portal to the magical land of Abadazad, a realm previously known only from a beloved series of storybooks. Written and illustrated by a single creator, the series was praised for its intricate, full-color artwork and its heartfelt exploration of grief and imagination. Though brief, Abadazad is remembered as a poignant, visually stunning homage to the power of storytelling.
