review:
'Assassin's Creed: Dynasty' by Xu Xianzhe and Zhang Xiao is a manga adventure featuring a famous video game character.

The story takes place during a flower festival during one of the Chinese dynasties. The flowers are getting destroyed and the growers are being oppressed. A lone hooded figure hiding in the shadows starts avenging the farmers. He makes friends with a nobleman and evades capture.

The story starts a bit abruptly and we are given no motive for why our assassin, Li E, is at this place at this time. There are some pretty good historical notes after the story about the people and settings. The art is 2 tone, but rather nice. I just wish the story were a bit better introduced.

I received a review copy of this manga from TOKYOPOP and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this manga.
