Abel

Few characters carry the weight of a name as ancient as Abel's, and this Bronze Age figure — brought to life in 1974 by Michael Fleisher and Gerry Talaoc — arrived in the pages of Semic's Scandinavian anthology titles with all the atmosphere those mystery and horror magazines could muster. Published across Mysterieserier and Skräckmagasinet through the early 1980s, Abel shares his eerie world with the enigmatic Kain, a pairing that crackles with the kind of primal tension those titles thrived on. With only a handful of catalog appearances, every issue featuring Abel is a genuine find for collectors drawn to the darker, more atmospheric corners of Bronze Age comics.
