Anni-Frid Lyngstad
Few comics characters arrive with a built-in soundtrack, but Anni-Frid Lyngstad — the real-life ABBA star rendered in ink and color by Angus P. Allan and Arthur Ranson — made her four-color debut in 1976's Look-In #22, right at the height of the group's global phenomenon. A genuine Bronze Age curiosity from ITV's beloved British children's TV comic, she shares her pages with bandmates Agnetha Fältskog, Benny Andersson, and Björn Ulvaeus, as well as pop-culture giants like Steve Austin and Jaime Sommers — making Look-In a wonderfully eclectic snapshot of what the 1970s considered must-read entertainment. With 33 catalogued appearances across a run stretching to 1980, this is a rare slice of comics history where the worlds of pop music and sequential art collide, and for collectors who love the era, it's an utterly charming find.
