Expanding game IPs beyond games has become a popular option, and Mass Effect is no different. However, what makes the the Mass Effect comics from Dark Horse extra special is that they’re written by Mass Effect 2 Lead Writer Mac Walters.
“By and large this story is appealing to anyone who likes exploring the Mass Effect universe,” Walters explains. “It crosses over borders. One thing we’ve always been cognizant of is providing a view of this universe outside of (main character) Shepherd’s vantage point which is how you play the game. With Inquisition, you get to see that world through the eyes of a more blue-collar-type beat cop character named Captain Bailey.”
Mass Effect: Inquisition is being made available for free on USA Today.
“This is more a character study of one of the more interesting figures that occupies this universe,” added Walters. “Captain Bailey’s a captain within the Citadel (the center of galactic civilization in this distant time). This is a very personal story for this character.”
