Marvel Reveals The Origin of HALO's Master Chief!
Marvel and 343 Industries are proud to announce Halo: Fall of Reach-Boot
Camp #1, the graphic fiction event answering the question on the minds
of gamers around the world-what's the secret on the planet of Reach that
led to the creation of the Master Chief? This September, fan-favorite
creators Brian Reed and artist Felix Ruiz team up to adapt the New York
Times best-selling novel, Halo: Fall of Reach, and bring the world of
Halo to life like you've never seen it before!
Before he was Master Chief, he was John -- a boy stolen from his parents
and conscripted into the SPARTAN II program on the fortress world of
Reach. But as the galaxy falls into dark times, one doctor must pay a
terrible price to keep humanity from being destroyed.
"We're excited to bring this gripping novel to life in graphic fiction
form," said Ruwan Jayatilleke, Marvel Senior Vice President, Development
& Planning, Print, Animation and Digital Media. "The Halo universe has
produced some of the most compelling science fiction action epics of the
century and Fall of Reach is right up there. If you've never experienced
Halo before, this is a great place to jump on board."
What are the secrets of Master Chief's origin, and what happened on
Reach to make it the most important planet in humanity's struggle for
survival? Find out in Halo: Fall of Reach-Boot Camp #1, adapting the hit
novel this fall!
