Ranger Intel 1058 Report post Posted October 29, 2018 Hi everyone, Spartan here with Site Poll 98. Last week's poll had us asking ourselves which Alpha-Nine member we liked most. This included all past and present members of the fireteam. There was a lot of competition, but Spartan Buck ultimately came out on top. Interesting to see who people voted for and why. Click here to view Site Poll 97, and here for the Twitter responses. What's your favourite Halo novel/comic? This was one of the first poll ideas I originally thought of, but wasn't going to do this one because I thought most people wouldn't have read any novels or comics pertaining to Halo. Looks like many people are well-educated with the lore and have read a lot material, especially with those on Twitter, so I've had a change of heart. The external media is what really defines Halo. The way I see it, the games are only a small add-on. Regardless of how good they all are, I'm sure there are some pieces that are more favoured than others when it comes down to person choice. Which novel, graphic novel or comic did you like most and why? There are many to choose from, and I can imagine it'll be a tough choice for those of you who have read a lot, so if you want you may list one novel and one comic/graphic novel. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts, Spartan out. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melody 762 Report post Posted October 29, 2018 (edited) Halo: New Blood Admittedly, I didn't read a lot of the books but New Blood is a damn good one, details Rookie's death and good stuff. Spoiler tags requested by OP. Edited October 30, 2018 by Melody 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drizzy_Dan 4488 Report post Posted October 30, 2018 Man there’s a lot of good stuff to choose from and so much that I own and haven’t read! Love Melody’s choice it’s up there for me. I gotta go with Halo: First Strike. The action and storytelling is all there. It’s Blue Team being Blue Team. So imagine how awesome their introduction was in Halo 5 and then imagine a whole novel written about how they handle a mission much bigger than that (awesomeness to scale). We would have been long done for had it not been for Operation First Strike 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Twinreaper 2318 Report post Posted October 30, 2018 For me it has to be Glasslands. The re-emegence of Naomi and the whole untold/backround of what was going with Parangoski basically grooming Osmand to take over Oni....for me it was top notch story telling. From this book alone, we learned about the hard untold truth in what P was responsible for, did and oversaw during before reach and after. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
