SDCC 2023: Massive Publishing and Studio Lounak to start publishing Assassin’s Creed titles in November

Massive Publishing and Studio Lounak are releasing Assassin’s Creed Visionaries #1 in November. In the first issue, celebrated artist Rafael Albuquerque is joined by writer Ale Santos and colorist Marcelo Maiolo. Together they tell us a story set during the seventies’ Brazilian Dictatorship, where a revolutionary fighter is captured and sent to a military basement, also known as Torture Rooms… Then in a second tale, renowned European writer/artist Stephane Louis is joined by colorist Véra Daviet to weave us a tale set in a future where the Templars are on the verge, yet again, of eliminating the Assassin Brotherhood once and for all!

Every new Assassins introduced in the Visionaries comic series is created by the comic book artists themselves and are appearing for the first time in this new series. 

A roster of celebrated artists working in various styles and genres will be featured in subsequent issues, bringing us their own take on the Assassin’s Creed universe. Including talents like Enrico Marini, Mahmud Asrar, Olivier Vatine, Yanick Paquette, Niko Henrichon, Jonboy Meyers, and many more gifted creators will join this artist-driven anthology series.

Massive Publishing and Studio Lounak have a full year of Assassin’s Creed comics planned with longer format stories outside of the Visionaries brand including prestige format issues of their original (some never before released through the direct market), Assassin’s Creed stories.
