Assassin's Creed: The Fall by Karl Kerschl, Cameron Stewart
5.0
When it comes to tie-ins of any sort, I think most people's reactions is not to expect too much, because a lot of times it's just... not very original. Not so this one. It's written by people who're obviously fans of the games, and rather than being just another generic tie-in, this is a story that can stand on its own - but still fits in with the story of the games.
Assassin's Creed is the kind of game that has a lot of potential for all sorts of prequels, sequels, tie-ins and whatnot - whether it's Subjects reliving their ancestor's memories or, like in this case, the story of one of the earlier Subjects - there are a lot of stories waiting to be told. And Karl Kerschl and Cameron Stewart deliver a great one in here. I don't want to spoil it too much, because I was surprised by a lot of things, but suffice to say there's a great plot and a lot of little details in here than make it perfect. And the art is really gorgeous, as is the coloring by Nadine Thomas.
I really loved this, and not just because Assassin's Creed is My Most Favorite Thing Of The Moment.
