Former Creative Executive at DC Comics, and Producer at Warner Bros, Victoria Setian – or Tory Setian – has recently been Principal Producer at Avalanche Studios. She is best known for working on games such as Mortal Kombat X, the Batman: Arkham franchise, Just Cause 4, and the upcoming Contraband. She has now negotiated a deal as a debut writer for The Dark Room, an upcoming YA horror graphic novel series drawn by Savanna Ganucheau of Bloom fame. The Dark Room is about a young photographer named Mina whose interest in a mysterious shipwreck brings her into the dark orbit of Raf, the brooding new kid who has everyone swooning over him—but Mina soon realizes that Raf may have a sinister secret.
Emily Daluga at Abrams/Amulet will publish The Dark Room in the autumn of 2024. And Victoria Setian and Savanna Ganucheau’s agent Charlie Olsen at InkWell Management negotiated the two-book deal for world English rights.
Abrams, formerly Harry N. Abrams, Inc, is an American publisher of art and illustrated books, children’s books, and stationery. The enterprise is a subsidiary of the French publisher La Martinière Groupe. Run by President and CEO Michael Jacobs, Abrams publishes and distributes approximately 250 titles annually and has more than 3,000 titles in print. Abrams also distributes publications for the Victoria and Albert Museum, Tate, Vendome Press (in North America), Booth Clibborn Editions, SelfMadeHero, MoMA Children’s Books, and 5 Continents. Founded by Harry N. Abrams in 1949, Abrams was the first company in the United States to specialize in the creation and distribution of art books. Times Mirror acquired the company in 1966 and Harry Abrams retired in 1977. For many years, the company was under the direction of Paul Gottlieb (publisher) until January 2001, eighteen months before his death. Abrams was acquired by La Martinière Groupe in 1997.
