It can't possibly be worse than Redemption, so that's one good thing.

Can't see that happing. Liara is not Walters character, thus he tried to make her HIS character which failed, TIM is Walters character so this will be very good and not feel OOC.

If you read the comic you get the feeling that the writer based his characterization of Liara off her presentation in ME2 which was itself a far more egregious act of butchery.

The comic itself was entertaining; but the great character Drew Karpashyn created in Liara wasn't really the protagonist.  It was still an improvement on "Liara" in ME2 though since that missed her character by an even wider mark and it wasn't even entertaining.

In contrast the short comic about Aria was a hell of at lot better since he got her character pretty spot on.

For ME3 I really hope they bring Drew Karpashyn back at least when it comes to writing Liara; because both Redemption and ME2 made it pretty obvious that none of the other writers grasped her character.

The reason why Aria was better was because again, Aria is Walters character. A writer will always do better with a character they know. Sadly Drew won't be coming back, his only role in ME3 will be making sure the lat part goes as planed, I think Walters might learn from his mistakes this time and make Liara in ME3 better this time, but this comic will be alot better, tho I wished Walters wrote this in a book, it would be alot better.

BioWare will again be teaming up with the fine folks at Dark Horse Comics to bring you another set of Mass Effect comics. Mass Effect and Dark Horse already worked together to create the acclaimed Mass Effect Redemption series featuring the adventures of Liara T'Soni.

This new series will again be published by Dark Horse and written by Mass Effect 2 Lead Writer Mac Walters. It will also return Omar Francia and John Jackson Miller to the series. This time, the covers for the comics will be drawn by former Y the Last Man artist Massimo Carnivale and, importantly to Mass Effect 2 fans, they will provide some infrmation on one of ME2's shadowy figures, The Illusive Man.

You can learn more here: http://comics.ign.co.../1106020p1.html

Are you gonna release the comic through Itunes, aswell, like you did with Redemption?

I'm actually glad Liara changed. Considering that she went through enough traumatic events throughout the first game, and Shepard's death in the second, and literally went through hell to recover Shepard's body, there's no way she'd remain a naive school-girl character. It's just as insipid as expecting a traumatized soldier to get over the loss of losing his/her best friend in battle in in two days.

I like the change, but it's how it was done poorly is why peopel are upset by it. I am welcome to change, as long as it's done good, not crap.

Very cool, will definitely be picking this up. Now the question is, will we be finding out who the Shadow Broker is before these come out?

We might see the start of the mini war they have had with each other, we might even see Mr.Lawson.

Calling it now. TIM is the human that killed Saren's brother.

I don't think so, I think he might have been on Shanxi(sp) and his familly was killed and he was injured. (that could maybe explain his eyes and why he hates aliens.)

So you think its logical that a woman who dedicated nearly her entire life (70-80 years) to Prothean Archeology and then made the most important Archeological discovery EVER would choose to...

A) Pursue the Shadow Broker to avenge the loss of some Drell she went on one mission with and who lied to her about the fact that he was working for Cerberus, over...

  Following up on the most important archeolgical discovery of all time by helping her lover save the entire galaxy.

I agree that Liara becoming a tad more hardened is a logical direction to take the character; but quoting her psychotic mother and threatening to flay some dude alive just because he didn't pay his bill isn't becoming hardened its becoming an entirely different character.

You don't take an established and beloved character and have them undergo an extreme character change unless your story is about that change taking place.  Having that all occur off camera just ****s with the audience and its straight up ****ty writing.

Same guy working the pencils?

Oh, bother.

Well, in my mind, Marjane Satrapi is working on a full-length graphic novel about Jack's early life. So there. Respectfully, you can keep your flash, bang and garish colours.

[Razorsedge820]

I can not say I am excited about this. I really do not care much for the Illusive man and his back story. But if this comic book series can shed some light on the first contact war and not just focus on the Illusive man maybe I will check it out.



I would have preferred if another squademate got their own series like Garrus and his early years with C-Sec, or Wrex and his days of youth on Tuchanka and as a bounty hunter.

I have to agree I was not blown away by Omar Francia's work on the Redemption series. Bah what can you do about.

Uh, I am a huge liara fan. But!

This news is very exciting!

*hides from friends*

*hugs shav* I agree. I have been dying for this story, I rather it was a noval, but TIM is Walters character, so I expect it to be amazing, plus it's intresting that TIM fought in the war.

"Acclaimed"???!! Aclaimed by who? It was bloody awful!

kraidy1117 - The Illusive Man is not "mac Waters' character". He appears throughout Mass Effect Ascension by Drew Karpyshyn and is frankly a more convincing character in that than he is in the game.

The fact that this comic is written by Mac Waters means that I definitely won't be buying it. The same may well apply to Mass Effect 3 if he is still the lead writer. One terrible comic and a game with a central story that makes no sense whatsoevr. I have yet to see any evidence that Mac Waters is a capable writer.

Are you kidding me!? Drew's TIM sucked! He was a twiliring mustache moron in the book. Walters made TIM in ME2  much better.  Dam Drew fanboy.

[Massadonious1]

It was "acclaimed" by me.



Hope that clears that up.
