Looking at the first 6 pages released by 343, on the fourth page, there is something rather peculiar.<\/p>\n

I’ve cropped the page to show exactly what I’m talking about:<\/p>\n

Anyone notice what’s wrong here?<\/p>\n

Why is Palmer’s Booster Frame numbered ’69’? That’s very sexist and something that should not be in Halo. Now either 343 missed this when proofing it, or they saw it and approved it anyway, or the artist changed it after 343 having looked at the final proof.<\/p>\n

Perhaps someone needs to say something to Darkhorse. I’ve enjoyed the series and as an adult, this isn’t as jarring to me. However, there ARE kids who read these comics. No doubt given the culture these days, they know what that means. So is that something either\/both 343\/Darkhorse want to have in the comic book?<\/p>\n

Look, I’m not trying to take the high road here. I cuss all the time when I’m gaming. But in the context of this being in a comic book, which have throngs of kids who read them… Well, I just hope it doesn’t happen in the future.<\/p>\n
