Next week, Assassin's Creed Brotherhood comes out. It will be ace.

Handily, this week, Wildstorm launched The Fall, a three part series looking at a new assassin and a new descendant.



It's Russia, October 27 1888. The target is Tsar Alexander III, with the opportunity to lessen the autocratic hold that the Tsar has on Russia and give some freedom to its people.

The Assassin infiltrates the Tsar's train, kills a few of the guards and then breaks into the Tsarist carriage itself.

You can guess the rest.

The result of the assassin's intervention? the Borki Train Disaster


And, in news of cooler assassins Altair just wants a hug

Yes, the blade is in the wrong hand, but we'll forgive Bill Mudron for that.
