Hitman

In the early 2010s, French publisher Ankama launched Hitman, a ten-issue comic series that reimagines the world of the iconic video game. Known for its gritty, cinematic art and faithful adaptation of the franchise's core premise—a genetically engineered contract killer navigating a shadowy underworld—the series expanded the lore for fans while remaining accessible to new readers. Though short-lived, it stands as a notable example of a European publisher bringing a major interactive property to the page with style and ambition.
