Chris Johnson, who has worked on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Star Trek, co-created and illustrated Rifters, and created “The Boy With a Balloon for a Head,” joins the world of Assassin’s Creed with this barbaric cover design. In our first tale DECIMA, one bloody night, before recorded time, a young warrior watches as her family and the rest of their village are brutally slaughtered. The only hope of saving her tribe is to pick up an axe, steel her nerves, and join the fray. DECIMA is a tale of loss, respect, and valour, stepping into the far reaches of human history, further than previously ventured in the Assassin’s Creed universe. By writer ED BRISSON and artist CHRIS JOHNSON. Then in POWDER, the Templars expand their influence around the globe, while expanding their coffers at home, flooding China with opium. And while the brotherhood is slow to act, a pair of Assassins from separate guilds sow chaos amid the Templar fleet. By writer FRED KENNEDY and artist NICK MARINKOVICH, the team behind the IMAGE COMICS hit series DEAD ROMAN!
