Honestly... Wtf. How could Ubisoft have approved these stories when they contradict the video games in the franchise ? If they were spin-offs alongside the games, okay. But this ? They're trying to deepen the plot of several games when there's clearly no room or even need to add to Desmond's story.
This could have been super interesting, Aquilus and Accipiter had potential but this is just wasted potential. Even on the wiki of these characters, it says that their stories are not taken into account in the Assassin's Creed timeline because there are strong contradictions encountered...
The drawings are... terrible. I'm already not a fan of comic book graphics, but this is a new level of character design. I don't know if it's the artist or the colourist who is to "blame" but it doesn't help at all to immerse oneself in the story (which is way too fast for that anyway).
What a waste of plot for a wonderful franchise...

• Plot- or character-driven? Plot
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

I'm enjoying this issue more than the first two. I have a feeling that in the next Assassin's Creed game, we will no longer be following the main Eagle branch of the Assassins. I'm really excited to read the next one.
