Today, Ubisoft and Titan Comics showed off a little bit of the first issue of the new Assassin's Creed: Origins comic, featuring Cleopatra on the cover as a member of the creed and the main character in the miniseries. If you're not familiar with Titan Comics, they do a lot of work with video game and pop culture adaptations like Doctor Who, Bloodborne, and The Prisoner to name a few of the recent titles. Below is a description of the comic sent out in the press release from this morning, as well as a few samples of covers and artwork from the first issue, which will be in comic book shops on February 28th.
