Ian Edginton writes a very talky issue and I'm glad it was very talky, otherwise I wouldn't've had a clue what was going on.

Overall, a very strong first issue that managed to introduce all the core concepts needed to understand the story, but in such a way it was still a fun read as a standalone issue. Not just for fans of the games, this is a worthwhile read for fans of any action heavy comics, books, or films. Worth picking up. Read Full Review
It's hard to get a good grasp on Assassin's Creed: Locus. It has many aspects that make it seem like it cold have good character moments, it doesn't seem to relief too heavily on the games so it will be easy to read. At the same time, it is only for issues and with its current pacing I fear it will simply end before it has a chance to explore its potential. Read Full Review
The overall art style used within the issue was a more child-like representation of the world compared the more mature art style used within the Black Cross series. The adventure of the issue had pace, with a nice twist on the present day story, but the dispute between the Assassins and the Templars has not provided anything new fromthe stale motivation for the gaming series.

Overall, it was worth the read. But anyone trying to fill the void until a new Assassins Creed game is released, I would recommend looking somewhere else. Hopefully on December 21st, when the Assassin's Creed movie is released, that void will be filled. Read Full Review

Id launch into a rant about how Assassins Creed fans deserve better, but all I can manage is a hearty, Meh. Read Full Review
