Halo: Uprising goes hardcover next year

Spotted for pre-order over on Amazon.com by eagle eyed halo.bungie.org member Onebitrocket is a listing for a yet to be announced hardcover version of the Halo: Uprising comic books. The Marvel comic series, which bridges the story gap between Halo 2 and Halo 3, was initially slated for four separate comic books with staggered release dates throughout the year and into 2008. But never did Marvel mention plans for a collective hardcover version of the comics and at a $16 retail price, you can count us in. Hardcover Halo: Uprising FTW!

2. As you guys pointed out in the Halo3 spoiler-tastic fancast, wasn't the "bridge" between Halo 2 and 3 like 10 minutes? Still, I bet this comic is pretty great. I may have to pick it up and the Dark Tower trade next year :-)

Oh, and sometimes I wish you guys would swing the mighty "ban-hammer" a little bit more often, because renatox's progressively more hostile FIFA off-topic posts are kinda getting annoying.

We get it renatox, you don't like Halo, you do like FIFA. Whoopie-dee-do.

3. Really renatox!!?? I had no clue cause it's not like your were spamming about it every day!

Well I'm happy for you, atleast it will quite you down posting this crap on non-related topics.

4. Seriously this comic situation is getting stupid, last issue not until next year! Its only 4 issue's!!! Stop milking it!

5. Oh and guess what Renatox, more people are excited for Orange Box than your precious FIFA.

6. I missed the first issue so I was already planning on waiting for the paperback trade. Nothing was confirmed but come on... this is marvel. They make trades for everything.

7. dude, Rentaox, God bLess you man. im happy that you get to finally enjoy FIFA 08.

8. I kinda felt like the first issue of this was almost pathetically bad, or at least dull. I mean, the art is decent, but Brian Michael Bendis has been on a long, downhill slide with his writing for the last 2 or 3 years, and this comic is no exception. First time in a long time that I legitimately wanted my money back after reading a comic, and I'm generally a fan of Halo's story, so that definitely was not the problem.

9. It was always going to come out in hardcover form. This is not news.

Posted at 3:24PM on Oct 8th 2007 by Rawnzilla

10. yay, now i can actually read them (NO WHERE has them)

11. There was absolutely NO gap between Halo 2 and 3...

Unless you're telling the story of the Master Chiefs trip on the forerunner ship from Halo to Earth...

How exciting can 4 comics of a Spartan sitting there waiting to arrive on earth so he can suicide jump out of the ship and land in the jungles of Africa to start Halo 3 be?

Another thing... As small and insignificant as they were... They never explained the new additions to his armor...

I love the game... but I'm a plot Fanatic... And I didn't get my fix with Halo 3, hence the reason I'm already waiting for the 4th game...

I WANT MY ANSWERS DAMN IT !!!

12. maybe this'll fill in the gaps of why the hell master cheif has different armor from halo 2 to 3.

oh and the brute chopper sucks.

13. Holy crap, I wrote this little halo story before halo 3 and the comics came out, and it was basically what happened between halo 2 and 3, and it actually matches up perfectly. In my story, part of cortana is still in Master Chief and she says wierd things JUST LIKE IN THE GAME. I feel like a genius :D
