Dark Horse continues in the tradition of bringing only the biggest and best characters and story lines to comics with the announcement of the Halo: Initiation miniseries, launching in August! This exciting new miniseries will be written by Halo 4 writer and comics veteran Brian Reed, with art by Marco Castiello (Secret Invasion: Front Line, Star Wars: Purge)!

 

Before she was a supersoldier defending humanity as part of the Spartan-IV program, Sarah Palmer was an ODST—Orbital Drop Shock Trooper—carrying out the most dangerous missions behind enemy lines! See how she became the first Spartan-IV commander in this must-read series for fans of Halo 4 and the Halo franchise!

 

"A rich science fiction universe driven by compelling characters, Halo has all the makings for show-stopping comics, " said Dave Marshall, Dark Horse Editor. "In Initiation, Brian and Marco are delivering an action-packed thrill-ride with a beating heart of authentic human drama."

Wasn't Palmer also at the holdout of Paradise Hotel during the Halo 2 era? She met the chief there.

The sex offender registry internet site is targeted on delivering set of sex offenders living in Nyc, identifying their correct location via their residential addresses.

 

Based on the New York State Division of Criminal Justice Services, there are 3 amounts of sex offences – Level 1, 2 & 3, with sex prison of Level 1 having the lowest risk of repeat offence and Level 3 of the highest. Level 1 sex offenders are needed to be registered for a period of two decades, while Level 2 & Level 3 sex offenders are registered for a very long time.

 

The designers of the two new websites hope that their record can offer stability to families and can help out with reduction of sex offenses, making the areas a much happier and safer place for everybody.

Señores 343 Industries cordial saludo desde Colombia, primero que todo quiero que sepan que soy gran fanático de la saga de halo y todo lo relacionado con este, me gusta mucho su trabajo y todo lo que han hecho con esta gran franquicia desde halo 3, reach y 4, sin embargo halo 2 fue la puerta a la gloria de esta  franquicia  y aun lo sigue siendo, pero no me estoy contradiciendo como dije anteriormente hicieron un trabajo excelente con esta franquicia pero la pregunta seria porque cambiar tanto este gran juego no hablo de los personajes o la historia del juego hablo de la jugabilidad de esos detalles como los super saltos, dobles ráfagas con el rifle de batalla y todas estas cosas que hacían que este juego  fuera diferente a los demás y no uno mas del montón como lo noto ahora en halo 3, reach y 4? me gustaría que volvieran a las viejas raíces a lo que hizo este juego tan famoso y exitoso!, quisiera ver un halo 2 modificado con una nueva historia gráficas increíbles pero sin cambiar su esencia y  jugabilidad en halo 5. Les hablo de un lugar en donde todavía se juega halo 2, gracias por su atención prestada BYE
