“I’ve got another friend to help now - and I’ve made a new enemy.” - Liara There would be a fun follow-on to this series: the Lair of the Shadow Broker DLC game for Mass Effect is a direct sequel. We also got to use a tried-and-true comic-book device, the origin story, in spelling out his motivations.īy the time Mass Effect Redemption #4 came out, I was hip-deep in writing the novel Star Wars: Knight Errant, so it was actually a longer-than-usual stretch before I sat down to read the issue! The gap between the last issue of Redemption and the launch of the Knight Errant comics series was also the longest stretch for me without new comics on the stands since 2004, after Iron Man ended. Fortunately, I’d had some experience with this kind of masquerade over in Knights of the Old Republic.

Throughout the series, every Feron scene I wrote had to be approached with both an understanding of what his true loyalties were - plus the image he was intending to portray to Liara at the time. With the final issue of the story arc, Feron’s triple-game is finally known.
