Book Reviews of The Halo Graphic Novel
Book Review: My review of the Halo graphic novel
Summary: 5 Stars
I am a fan of graphic novels like the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Watchmen, Batman, and the Dark Tower series. I am not so acquainted with the Halo game (as I am not a gamer), but do love the graphic novels. Their stories bring a human touch and feel to an intergalactic story These graphic novels stand up to any of the comic book and graphic novel greats in all aspects - colors, graphics, storytelling, and their ability to reach people on a realistic, real world level of thought and feeling. I suggest these graphic novels to anyone interested in the art of graphic novels whether or not you're a gamer.Book Review: An excellent addition to a great series
Summary: 5 Stars
This books is one of the best I've read in a long time. If you are a fine of the halo series of games and wish for deeper story, then this book and the previous three will satisfy your curiousity. It will give you insight as to what happened with the other spartans during the first 2 games and sets up where they are at the start of the third I do believe. There is a fifth books coming as I understand it. I hope it is as amazing as this book. Only took me a day to read...not because it was that easy or short but because I couldn't put it down. 5 stars!Book Review: the beautiful Master Chief
Summary: 4 Stars
Unfortunately Microsoft is one of those companies that will milk anything till it is dead and withered. Fortunately their current cash cow is Bungie's Halo franchise. If i have to explain Halo your in the wrong place.
Marvel did a beautiful job colaborating with the various artist to provide a gorgeous peice of eye candy. As far as story goes... read the books. This is a collection of 4 comics.... and when have you ever seen four comics explain or lead to anything. Regaurdless the shorts featured are a definate flashback for even the greenist player.
Book Review: The Halo Graphic Novel
Summary: 5 Stars
Wow was this a hard book to get. This was PLEASE mom and dad this is what I want for Christmas my son said. So to my dismay this is no longer in print. The first order I order through here but it was someone from the UK that ended up Cancelling my order 1 week before Christmas. Got back on and did another search for a new one it ranged from $45-$260 so we went with a slightly used book. You cannot even tell.. for $30...
The book so you all know is VERY COOL BUT it is a comic book not like the other halo books you are probably use too.
Book Review: Good but Short
Summary: 4 Stars
The only thing that bothered me about this graphic novel is its lack of content, it took me about twenty minutes to read this from beginning to end, including one that is about the master chief that is set in the level 343 guilty spark in the game. the rest however is very well made. there are also some pretty cool graphics at the end of the book.
P.S. if you do happen to buy the book, look at the story about the covenant landing party: in one of the frames doesn't it look like the grunts are carrying human assault rifles?
