Desmond by Raphaël Hédon, Éric Corbeyran, Djillali Defali

2.0

I am a huge Assassin's Creed fan. I live and breathe that video game. When I saw this comic book I was excited and hesitant at the same time. I love that theres a comic book surrounding my favorite video game, but I am always hesitant about comic books, or even just books in general, that are based off of video games or movies because they just always tend to be a disappointment. This was not the exception to that rule.

If you've never played the game before, you're going to have a very hard time understanding whats happening in this story. I felt like it was jumping all over the place and barely touched on any important aspects of the video games except for the ending of what happens both in the animus and in Desmond's story. But Desmond's story was changed as well. It was a different ending that what had happened in the video game. There was also this obscure reference to another assassin from the Roman times in the beginning of the story that didn't make sense to me at all and I felt like it added nothing to the story and was unnecessary.

I've already got the rest of the series in my possession, and that is the only reason why I will be continuing with this series. It could have been done much better in terms of the story.
