I have to admit I approached this comic rather cautiously. I truly enjoy Hitman games but it is rather difficult to make comic about a professional hitman who during all of the games maybe uttered full 4 pages of text.

But I have to admit it thry truly managed to write the origin story for both 47 and his to-be handler Diana. We follow them from their teens to the time where their paths cross and they start to work for notorious ICA.

We follow them as they fight their inner daemons and tragedies and finally emerge as a cold-blooded assassin (47) and highly manipulative controller (Diana). They are both people that suffered a lot at hands of others and finally found freedom of sorts.

Art is good, sometimes proportions seem to be slightly off but in general art is very clear with both wide-shots and action scenes.

Recommended to fans of thriller and espionage stories. ( )

A pretty bad refresher that doesn't cover much of Agent 47's story or explain how it ties into Hitman 3 ( )
