The Halo Graphic Novel
Marvel and Bungie team up to create The Halo Graphic Novel HC based on the best-selling video game. The graphic novel brings the Halo universe to life for the first time in the sequential art medium in a 128-page, full color, high quality, jacketed, hardcover graphic novel. Stories include: "Last Voyage of the Infinite Succor" by Simon Bisley and Lee Hammock. When communications from a Covenant agricultural support ship are mysteriously terminated, an Elite Commander and his squad of Special Forces are sent to investigate. In "Armor Testing" by Ed Lee and Jay Faerber, the only way to test Spartan armor, is to send a Spartan. The question is what's really being tested? In Tsutomo Nihei's "Breaking Quarantine," the untold tale of Sergeant Johnson's escape from the clutches of the Flood menace is revealed! Finally, Moebius and Brett Lewis' "Second Sunrise Over New Mombasa" tells of the subtler, more dangerous fights taking place on the streets of New Mombasa and in the hearts and minds of men. Cover by Phil Hale. Gallery art created a number of elite artists including Rick Berry, Geof Darrow, Scott Fischer, Sterling Hundley, Craig Mullins, George Pratt, Juan Ramirez, George Staples, Justin Sweet, John Van Fleet and Kent Williams.

The Halo Graphic Novel Reviews
What can I say. Good for any Halo fan who likes a good comic.
I expected a lot more from the game that redifined the FPS, and has set THE STANDARD for online gaming. I had been looking forward to it and was amazed that it was even on the shelf. WAY too short and WAY too hyped. Maybe a second edition will prove a better tome. I read through this book while on a short visit to the library. Once I "read" it I understood why it was there. I am a huge fan of HALO, but I would be doing everyone a disservice if I recommended that anyone actually BUY this book.
From an outsider's standpoint looking in, they say one should never judge a book by it's cover but I will do as such nonpussed because the dynamics of the combative format is such that of such exclusite artful review that need I say more.
This is an ok gift idea for someone you know who enjoys all things Halo, but if you really wanna get them something of value, go with one of the real novels instead. The story with Sergeant Johnson is the only one worth viewing. None of the stories follow Master Cheif, or Captain Keyes, or anyone remotely recognizable from the Halo universe except Sergeant Avery Johnson. As a hardcore Halo fan, this is just downright disappointing.
So to my dismay this is no longer in print. Wow was this a hard book to get.
This was PLEASE mom and dad this is what I want for Christmas my son said. Got back on and did another search for a new one it ranged from $45-$260 so we went with a slightly used book. You cannot even tell.
for $30. The first order I order through here but it was someone from the UK that ended up Cancelling my order 1 week before Christmas. The book so you all know is VERY COOL BUT it is a comic book not like the other halo books you are probably use too.
