"At Los Angeles airport, magazine photographer Friday Foster witnesses an assassination attempt against billionaire Blake Tarr and is drawn into a murky political conspiracy." IMDB.
"Friday Foster is based on a Chicago Tribune Syndicate comic strip of the same name that ran from 18 Jan 1970 until late 1974. James Lawrence wrote the strip and the original illustrator was Jorge Longaron, later followed by Dick Giordano....the only nationally syndicated comic strip to feature an African American female protagonist at the time." http://catalog.afi.com/Catalog/MovieDetails/55223
