The Halo Graphic Novel is a 2006 graphic novel published by Marvel Comics in partnership with Bungie Studios. Totaling 128 pages, the graphic novel covers four supplementary stories set in the Halo universe, with art by Simon Bisley, W. Andrew Robinson, Tsutomu Nihei (creator of Blame and Knights of Sidonia), and even the retired Mœbius, who contributed because of his son's fondness of the games.In the first story The Last Voyage of the Infinite Succor (set just after the sixth mission in Halo: Combat Evolved), Elite Special Operations Commander Rtas 'Vadumee and his team respond to a distress call and board the crippled supply craft Infinite Succor, which the Covenant believe has been attacked by humans. The only crew member still alive, a Covenant Prophet, tells 'Vadumee that the Succor has been infested by the Flood. Stuck on the ship, the Flood intend to activate the Succor's slipspace drive to escape the star system and find new planets to infect. Fighting waves of Flood, including the reanimated remains of his fallen soldiers, 'Vadumee plots a slipspace course that will destroy both the Succor and the Flood aboard it, then escapes via a Covenant shuttle.The second story Armor Testing (set shortly prior to the events of Halo 2) involves the UNSC field-testing a new version of the MJOLNIR Powered Armor, the Mark VI, in a series of challenging exercises. A lone Spartan-II puts the armor through its paces by dropping from Earth's atmosphere and engaging in a mock battle against UNSC special forces. This Spartan is revealed to be a woman, Maria-062, who has come out of retirement as a special favor to test the new equipment before it is sent to the Master Chief.The third story Breaking Quarantine (also set just around Combat Evolved's sixth mission) follows Sgt. Johnson in his escape from the Flood infestation on Halo. No dialogue is included in this story, as the focus is on building atmosphere, with the only written words being sound effects and the like.The final story of the compilation is Second Sunrise over New Mombasa, a story detailing the attack on New Mombasa, Kenya just before the Master Chief arrives there in Halo 2. The plot follows a reporter who creates propaganda for the UNSC. When the Covenant invade the city, the reporter and fellow citizens take to its defense, until they are forced to flee as the city faces ruin.The book finishes with a section titled "Gallery Art", featuring a range of standalone artwork from various Bungie, Marvel and independent artists. Hidden away in this section is a secret fifth story known among fans as Page 122, a single-page collage of various documents related to a secretive mission Sergeant Johnson took during his time in Project: ORION. | |

All There in the Manual: The graphic novel taking the place of the manual. Among other things, it's the first source to reveal the half-jawed Elite Spec-Ops Commander's actual name, and page 122 is notable for being the first canonical indication that Sergeant Johnson is actually a Spartan-I. | |

| The Halo Graphic Novel (Comic Book) / int_1e7159cf | comment |
Propaganda Machine: The reporter works as a contractor for ONI, making sure that news about the Covenant war is rendered "digestible" for the public; he feels both guilt and pride about this. The propaganda's been working too; one panel shows that most of Earth's civilians truly have almost no idea what the war is really like, to the point where some people actually think the UNSC actually has the upper hand. | |

Obstructive Bureaucrat: The Minister of Etiology, a Minor Prophet who locks the ship's control systems out of distrust that the Spec-Ops unit that has come to secure the ship is Flood-infected. He then forces them fight their way through the Flood again just to get to the medical bay to prove they're not infected, then all the way to the hydroponics deck, wasting time and getting men killed. When he starts protesting Rtas's plan for self-destructing the ship, Rtas gets fed up with him and orders him to cooperate or be left for dead. | |

Luckily, My Shield Will Protect Me: At one point, the fighting gets so fierce that Rtas and his Elites are forced to activate their hand-held energy shields. Given that Halo: Ghosts of Onyx indicated that Elites hate using hand-held energy shields, it demonstrates both Rtas's Combat Pragmatist nature and just how dangerous a foe the Flood are. | |

Samus Is a Girl: The Spartan testing the Mark VI turns out to be a woman named Maria. Of note is that she's the first Spartan to ever have her face depicted in visual Halo media. | |

Retcon | |
| The Halo Graphic Novel (Comic Book) / int_b2280b66 | comment |
Retcon: Word of God is that this story was created for the purpose of retconning away Halo: First Strike's explanation for how Johnson survived the events of Combat Evolved. Basically, First Strike stated that Johnson was actually immune to Flood infection, while Breaking Quarantine instead established that he was simply too badass to let any Infection Form stick its tentacles into him.invoked | |

Determined Defeatist: The reporter is confident that the Covenant will ultimately succeed in wiping out humanity, but he's nonetheless determined to do his job. He's even willing to give up his lifeboat seat to a little girl despite believing that she's probably not going to survive for long either way. | |

In a Single Bound | |
| The Halo Graphic Novel (Comic Book) / int_bc8271df | comment |
In a Single Bound: When an infected Marine starts to turn off the light bridge Johnson is running across, the Sarge manages to leap to the other side despite only being about halfway across. Justified by Johnson actually being a Spartan-I. The Flood chasing him don't quite make it across, but it doesn't matter, since it takes them only a single leap to jump all the way back up. | |

Taking You with Me | |
| The Halo Graphic Novel (Comic Book) / int_caf89e54 | comment |
Taking You with Me: Rtas and Kusovai duel in a training exercise at the story's beginning. When 'Kusovai gets the upper hand, Rtas forces his momentum in a way that will let him also impale 'Kusovai the moment Rtas is stabbed. Rtas considers that enough of a victory for him, and warns 'Kusovai to think more creatively. Rtas ends up using a similar maneuver to defeat the Flood-infected 'Kusovai, though he manages to get away with "just" a deep cut in the arm and both his left mandibles sliced off. | |

Many of the Flood beasts that Rtas and his squad run into have been visibly formed out of multiple infected creatures of various species, merged together into unholy amalgamations of decaying meat that somehow still move under their own power. | |
