: This comic should be pretty epic. I'm not sure how I feel about ordinary

: the books.

Woah there, buddy. She's a soldier, not a Marine. There's one of those difference thingy majigers. In any case, she's really not all that ordinary. Holly's engineering skills are top notch for someone so young and she's even a capable fighter who thinks on her feet. Plus she survived on a glassed, occupied planet for some three years. At the very least you could imagine her being in a comparatively conventional special warfare unit.

Also, she's totally the far left gray/blue Spartan. It's a fact*.

: I'm excited. The new art is helping a lot with getting into the world. Halo
: got me into comics!

Definitely! For comics I like something that's as lifelike as possible such as this, or a style with some good flair. The Halo Graphic Novel is a great example of the latter. Escalation's earliest issues are an example of how not to do the former.
