Assassin's Creed: Visionaries #1

Issue Details

Synopsis

This is the second of three connecting covers by Yanick Paquette, the Eisner-nominated, Shuster Awards Winner, and #1 New-York Times best-selling comics artist known for Batman, Swamp Thing, Wonder Woman: Earth One, INCAL and more. The Assassin's Creed® franchise was created over 15 years ago, so what better way to celebrate it than to give renowned comic artists complete creative freedom to share their own, personal visions of Ubisoft's hidden blade-wielding, parkour-running, century-spanning Assassin's Creed®! Each issue will feature 2 stories by today's top talents in the comics and pop culture industry. In this first issue, celebrated artist RAFAEL ALBUQUERQUE (American Vampire, Blue Beetle, Detective Comics, Prodigy) is joined by writer Ale Santos and colourist Marcelo Maiolo. They tell us a story set during the 70ies Brazilian Dictatorship, where a Revolutionary Fighter is captured and sent to a military basement, also known as Torture Rooms... Also, renowned European writer/artist STÉPHANE LOUIS (Tessa Agent Intergalactique, Carmen McCallum, Aquablue) is joined by Véra Daviet to weave us a tale set in a future where the Templars are on the verge, yet again, of eliminating the Assassin Brotherhood once and for all!
