About Abigail: Curses & Demons:
“Abigail: Curses and Demons is a great horror comic with a strong female lead. J. M. Montoya’s bold black and white art is complemented wonderfully by C.M. Salas’s fresh take on spiritual warfare. If you like pretty girls fighting demons (and who doesn’t?), you will love Abigail!” – Dan Conner, My Gal, the Zombie, Graphic Horror: Dracula
“You can find me hanging around the gypsy camp looking for the next Abigail” – Mike Grell, Green Arrow: The Long Bow Hunters, Warlord, Shaman’s Tears
“Abigail is a demon huntress after my own heart—which is why I started wearing chain-mail t-shirts…” – Sam Knight, Time Travel Trio, Whiskey Jack And A Murder Of Crows and The Ant Who Held Down A Mountain
About Abigail: Unbreakable:
For generations a member of selected Gypsy clans is chosen to walk the path of a Kulath. A Seeker sworn to purge demonic legions set free by advocates of evil–Necromancers of the Priesthood Council of Nine, also known as Lucifage Order.
Eras have passed since the fall of the Balcescu clan and Abigail made her pact with the Angel of Death. As an observer, Death presents himself to her as an ordinary black and white cat, and as a result of her fatal choice, Abigail is now tied between the land of the living and the realm of the dead. Following her grandfather’s footsteps as a Kulath, it is Abigail’s duty to bind the thirteen demons that were set free by Necromancers, Reverend and his son, Bel Cavalera, from her family’s Book of Knowledge.
Added to her supernatural abilities, Abigail wields a dual-bladed weapon she calls Kr`isis and with her six words, “WITH MY WOUNDS I BIND THEE!” she is obligated by oath and curse to rid the world of Reverend and Bel’s demonic throng–Helguun Legion.
