The Twelve Days of Halo

by GoodWillHunter

On the twelfth day of Halo,
My new clan sent to me –
Twelve drop pods dropping,
Eleven snipers sniping,
Ten jackals creeping,
Nine wraiths advancing,
Eight grenades a-sticking,
Seven grunts exploding,
Six spartans slaying,
Five….bold marines,
Four falling drones,
Three pelicans,
Two armored gloves,
And a cartridge in my SMG!

“Exposure” part 2—Disaster looms as Spartans Ray and Thorne race against time to track down a mysterious new weapon of mass destruction. Duffy Boudreau (BlackAcre, Bloodshot) and Douglas Franchin bring you the stunning conclusion of another action-packed chapter of the Halo saga!

If you do have a comic shop nearby, I’d suggest buying it there first. Local stores need your business and most comic shops are small businesses.

Here’s the cover of issue #9:

Halo Escalation #12 cover revealed!

DarkHorseComicsLogo Darkhorse has revealed issue #12 of Escalation. In the foreground we see an Elite Minor (Halo 4 armor) piloting a Ghost. In the background it appears that there is a Spartan piloting another Ghost, given chase to the one in front.

All around them, there is what looks like a collapsing ground element. Is a planet being ripped apart?

Well, if you read the clue given in the description of the issue, that might be the case.
