Ultimates_rock25 · Posted: Mon Jan 21, 2008 8:18 pm Post subject: Halo Comic

Good day to all here. To continue expressing my great love of Halo through 'the arts', so to speak, I give you my Halo Comic! Voila!
In other words....
Hey guys! I think Halo is totally awesome and shit so I'm gonna make a Halo Comic! It's gonna be in about five issues, maybe more, maybe less, and it could be either posted page by page (as pictures) or put up as a script. I was just wondering.... which one should I do?
BTW, it's kind of non-canon, like it's set during Halo 3, except the Marines have their Halo 1 Armour, and a lot of Issue One is set in the jungle of Halo 3 Level One, but it doesn't follow that level's story.... anyway.
EDIT: It isn't non-canon anymore.
Hope you like it! I'll put the first part up when you've decided how you want it....

Okay, cool. So how's it going? I just bought the latest USM.... I gotta say Immonen's art just isn't up to Bagley's standards. He has improved, and I liked him in UXM and UFF, but it's just Bagley's been on the book for so long and.... hmmm. I hope I get used to it.

Bendis and Immonen really surprised me with the conclusion to Death of a Goblin. Bendis, kinda capsized the arc so quickly, I was left wondering why Harry had barely turned into Hobgoblin in the last ish of the arc. Immonen, on the other hand, did an amazing job on the pencils. It was really spectactular...

Ultimate Iron Man II #1 was awesome, too!

Sure! Thanks for your help guys!
I guess the art was decent, I mean the cover was really cool. I can't believe Harry died. His live kinda went downhill since Arc 1. Norman's death was pretty cool, and it showed how crazy he really was.

Cowboy! You still on?
Here's Issue One! It's a little short.
Arrival
Issue One begins:
Sergeant Johnson and a squad of about fifteen Marines walk up a hill carrying heavy weaponry and bags of some sort. I don't know.
Marine: So thirsty.... man....
Johnson: boy, don't you dare start with your 'These boots weren't meant for uphill walking' crap.... Got enough bitin' my butt as it is....
There is a large crash behind him. They all turn around. Full page spread of the Marines and Johnson looking surprised. The cigar falls out of Johnson's mouth.
Marine: No freakin' way....

Focus on two eyes. There are slowly opening. People start talking.
Voice: Jesus....
Voice 2: It's him. It's actually.... him.
Voice 3: Quit your starin'. How far did he fall?
Voice 4: Two kilometres, easy.
Voice 5: His amour's locked up. Gel layer could have taken most of the impact.
Voice 3: ....Get him up. We're not leaving him here. (while they're talking, the eyes blink and look around)
Master Chief: Yeah -
He gets up.
Master Chief: - You're not.
Johnson (laughs): Crazy fool. Why do you always jump? One o' these days you're gonna land on somethin' as stubborn as you are. And I don't do bits and pieces.
He hands Chief a pistol. The Chief inspects it.
Chief: This all you got?
Johnson: On me, yeah. But there's a huge weapons cache down at the base. That's where we were headin' when we found you.
There is a rustle. Chief spins around. A blurred figure appears. The Chief pushes through the squad, runs towards it and jams the Magnum into Arbiter's throat.
Jonhson: Woah! Easy, Chief! The Arbiter's with us.
The Chief's lets go a little.
Johnson: Come on now. The last thing we need is you two trying to kill each other.
The Arbiter appears.
Arbiter: ....Were it so easy.
He takes out a Carbine and turns to walk. There is a zoom overhead and an exploding Phantom shoots over them. It combusts into blue flame and lands right by them.
Marine: Down! Down!
Johnson clicks his COM.
Jonhson: Man! You coulda warned us about that! We got the Chief down here!
COM: Seriously?
Johnson: Man!
COM: Sorry.... looks like we were beat here. Large group of Phantoms circling your area. One of our Birds managed to take one down, but the others are landing and dropping scouts. Recommend immediate Evac.
Johnson: ....Aknowleged.
He clicks his COM off and turns to the others.
Johnson: First Squad, you're my scouts. Move out, quiet as you can.

A Phantom flies over the river. A Brute Chieftain, complete with Gravity Hammer, stands on the side, looking overhead. A Grunt approaches him. He looks thoughtful.... for a Grunt.
Grunt: Permission to speak freely, Chieftain Corracuss? (Yes, Corracuss. I couldn't think of another name)
Chieftain Corracuss: You are not of my pack, Unggoy. What is it you want?
Grunt: ....This Demon that my brothers speak of. Do we really walk among.... beasts?
The Chieftain pauses.
Corracuss: We once walked among Gods, did we not? The ancient Lords. But then these Demons attacked. They fought back. God versus Monster....
He turns away.
Corracuss: You are out of your place here, Unggoy. Away with you now.
The Grunt strolls away, looking worried.
Corracuss stares at the water and frowns. He sees a platoon of Grunts sleeping way below. Their Chieftain watches over them. Suddenly Corracuss notices something. A green figure sneaks up behind the Cheiftain and hits it. It falls to the ground.
Corracuss: By the Gods....

Below: The Chief pummels the Cheiftain to death silently. Blood spatters everywhere. It muffles then becomes silent. The squad stand behind a fallen tree.
Marine: ....Dude.
The Chief stands up and nods at them. They stand and stare for a little, then get to work. The walk through the gang of Grunts and begin to slit their throats with Combat Knives. The Arbiter stands on a small cliff opposite the Chief, holding an Energy Sword. They both look at each other, then nod and leap down off their cliffs and down into a gang of Brutes who are standing underneath. They scream and pull out Brute Spikers, but the MC and Arbiter tear through them. They are surrounded by more and stand back to back. They begin to attack.

Johnson runs through the forest. His face is bloody and he has no hat on. He comes across a fallen Pelican and drops to his knees. There is a flask of water in a dead Marine's hand. He takes a huge swig and hears loud crashes behind him. Slowly, he hangs his head and turns around. Close up on his determined eyes. He picks up a Sniper Rifle, aims, and fires twice at the off-panel target.

Back to the Chief's fight. They are now in the area where you first get a Battle Rifle and that Pelican explodes overhead, before the Jackal Snipers. To be precise, at that corner where the Brute is standing on the little rock thing and is firing Brute Shots at you. A Brute's jaw is smashed by the Chief's boot while he elbows a Grunt in the mouth, knocking it's mask off. The Brute drops a Spike Grenade and the Chief picks it up, tossing is from side to side.
Chief: Well this is new.
The Grunt runs at him, teeth bared and the Chief hurls the Spike Grenade at it. It lodges in and he kicks the Grunt away into the water. The Grenade explodes underwater and fire and water rains down on the Chief.
Brute: If you liked that -
A Brute charges at the Chief and tackles him to the floor. It holds up a Firebomb Grenade.
Brute: - THEN TRY THIS.
The suicide Brute light it in his hand and shoves it into the Chief's face.

Johnson is brought towards the Brute Chieftain by two Hunters. He is on his knees, bloody and bruised.
Corracuss: ....Fiend. Perhaps we shall start your execution by removing your eyeballs....
Johnson smiles weakly.
Johnson: 'Fiend'.... Show me what you got.

TO BE CONTINUED!

Done issue two! It's a bit longer.
Quid Pro Quo
Issue Two begins: Corracuss smashes the butt of his Gravity Hammer into Johnson's skull. He drops, then stands up very slowly. The Brute kicks him in the.... ummm.... thing. He drops and blood drips from that, um, area.
Johnson: Damn.... you fight dirty.
The Brute roars and punches him. Johnson recovers quickly and tries to land a punch. He misses and the Brute headbutts him in the stomach. The pointy-nose thing on its helmet stabs him. Johnson screams, falls to the ground and lies still. The Chieftain walks over to him.
Corracuss: What a waste of time.
He begins to walk away. Suddenly Johnson gets up, elbows his Grunt guard into the water and takes his Needler. He fires a grand total of two rounds before it clicks empty. He looks at it.
Johnson: Who carries two rounds?
He shouts down to the water.
Johnson: Who carries two rounds, ya dipshit?
He faints from blood loss. Back to the adventures of the Chief.

A Brute lights a Firebomb Grenade in his hand and tries to get the Chief's face. The Chief holds back the hand and they stuggle for a while. Soon the Brute's hand, which was basically holding a fireball, catches on fire. It screams and leaps back.
Brute: Oh God! My hand! Make it - my hand!
He points at the Chief.
Brute: You!
He charges at him and lands in the water. Thrashing about, he dies. The Arbiter appears, holding a Brute's head.
Chief: You were meant to watch my back.
The Arbiter holds up the head.
Arbiter: I was a little preoccupied.
He throws it in the water. The rest of the Squad, minus three appear. One has a bloody leg and is being helped by a Medic. The Chief turns to them.
Chief: Any word from the base?
Marine: Not yet, Chief. We got a muffled transmission from Sergeant Major -
He plays it.
Johnson: My team's down, Chief. They got Hunters - Chieftains, the whole damn Covenant armada down here. I'm on my own KKKK but they're coming for KKKKKKKK bastards.
Marine: Lovely.
Chief: Any more wounded?
Marine: No, sir. One of our men got a Carbine round through the heart, though. We should watch our backs - those Jackal guys are everywhere.
Arbiter chirps up.
Arbiter: They will stick to the rocks up ahead. And you have wounded. Move around the rocks and meet us at the dam.
Marine: Sir.
They get moving.
Chief: The rest of you, with us.
Marine: But sir, the Jackals....
Arbiter: Won't be a problem. Everybody take one of these.
He hands them small devices.
Arbiter: They work as overshields. They'll deflect the Carbine Rounds.
The Chief makes a signal and they walk towards the Jackal Sniping area.

Corracuss stands over his captured - Sarge and his team. He polishes his Gravity Hammer while he taunts them.
Corracuss: I bet you were excited, Demon. You finally got to show us what you were made of. The power of hell itself!
He scoffs and looks at them.
Corracuss: You are an embaressment to your race. Are you the best your kind has? Are you the so-called Demons of Earth?
Sarge laughs.
Johnson: Demon? Nah, that's not me, buddy. That's someone else. Me? Yeah, maybe once, but not now.
Corracuss: ....What?
Johnson leans forward.
Johnson: What does the name Master Chief mean to you?
The Chieftain leaps back in horror and runs out of the room.
Johnson: Thought it might.
The Marines whoop.

The Chief is battling a Jackal who is carrying a Needler. He is holding two SMGs. He pauses, then fires at the shields. The Jackal raises its sheilds higher and squawks in laughter. A small piece of the Jackal's hip is now showing. The Chief raises his arm and the Jackal is shot in the back by a Marine holding a Carbine, crouching on a cliff by a Jackal's corpse. (Note: Behind him is the family of Cavemen Easter Egg in the level :p)
Marine: Where's the sighting on this thing?
Marine: That was the last one, Chief.
Chief: Good. Let's carry on to the base.
Arbiter: Wait - do we just keep pushing?
A Marine spins his gun.
Marine: That's how we roll.

Arbiter stabs a Brute in the back and stomps on its body, slicing it.
Arbiter: Your Prophets are liars, and you are fools to serve them.
The Chief is holding a Grunt by the neck when he presses against his head.
Marine: Chief, you okay?
Marine: Your vitals are going KIA.
A small blue speech bubble that looks wobbly appears around the Chief's head.
Voice: Could you sacrifice me to complete your mission? Could you watch me die?
He shakes his head quickly and shoots the Grunt.
Chief: Let's move.
He walks onward through some caves dimly lit by a red glow for some reason and walks up to a cliff and the Arbiter joins him. Johnson is being beaten by the Chieftain. The Arbiter points.
Arbiter: See how they bate their trap? I will help you spring it.
Chief nods and jumps down followed by the remaining Marines and lands on a Grunt.
Grunt: Not again!
The Chief has landed on a small, broken building. Grunts scatter, Brutes hit them, Jackals hide behind their shields.
Brute: He is here! Close in! Surround them!
The Chief shoots the Brute dead and then takes another's shielding down. While it recovers, he melees it and runs up to two Jackals. He lights a Plasma grenade, jumps behind a box and sits their while it detonates. He gets up again and runs forward. The Arbiter stands fighting some Brutes across the bridge.
Marine: We got a hammer!
The Chieftain charges through the Grunts on the bridge and towards the Chief on the other side.
Arbiter: Go through the tunnels, Spartan! I'll deal with it! You get the Sergeant!
Chief looks at the Arbiter, knows he would die against all those Brutes, and runs towards him, holding an Assault Rifle. The get closer to each other, closer, then both leap towards each other in a slow-mo (if this was a movie) move.

TO BE CONTINUED!
