Assassin’s Creed

Balloon Media’s 2011 Assassin’s Creed comic series, a six-issue run, expands the lore of the video game franchise by following a new modern-day protagonist who relives the memories of a Spanish Assassin during the Inquisition. While the game series is known for its historical playgrounds, this comic focuses tightly on the brutal conflict between Assassins and Templars in 15th-century Spain, offering fans a self-contained, action-driven narrative that bridges the games’ stories. It’s a solid, early entry in the franchise’s print adventures, capturing the series’ signature blend of historical conspiracy and parkour-fueled stealth.
