Hehe – Cybrfrk found a pair of web comics from last year that everyone here seems to have missed. Check out TrueNuff for January 9, 2002, followed by January 11, 2002. Now THERES a Halo fan. 🙂

Finn, in a frightening display of work ethic (and not a little cruelty, leaving mnemesis with nothing to do), has updated the Halo Story page with a mind-numbingly large array of speculations, comments, and pictures from the peanut gallery. If you’re even slightly interested in the Halo storyline, you’ll want to read this.

Fan Fiction submissions in the past day or so:Ishkabibbl’s Story Part 4, by Ishkabibbl Halo: FotF (Final Chapter), by Frensa Geran Chapter 8-Rescue Op, by Ultra Sonic 007 Halo 2: Revenge of a Spartan, chapter 4, by LostRock Ishkabibbl’s Story Part 4, by Ishkabibbl Pointless Battle, by Jeff Graham Halo: Captain Keyes Story Part 1,…

Thanks to the literally dozens of folks who pointed out the article at IGN Xbox listing the actual details of the Brute Force Companion DVD Set. The first word of this actually came from Dan Chosich, on our forum – and in response to some speculation of mine, Matt Soell confirmed that there’s nothing in…

Interesting. Looks like poena.dare came into posession of an interesting Bungie webcam shot recently… details are over at Bungie Sightings. Thanks to Ross Mills for the heads-up. (Shame on you, pd, for not letting us know!)

Three images languishing in our inbox for too long; a mockup of an Xbox cover, a tribute to Super-Issy, and an illustration of a scene from one of our Fan Fiction entries. All three can be found in our Miscellaneous Art section. (More artwork coming later.)

Not sure if this’ll kill the link… but Foginator has put together a nice little gameplay vid on The Silent Cartographer; you can find it linked from this forum post. (To be fair, if we overwhelm the mac.com site it’s hosted on, we’ll give it a new home…) It weighs in at over 17 mb,…

The Misc Art collection is still behind (hopefully soon, I’ll put up the stuff that’s here), but Fan Fiction continues apace:Halo:The Rise of the Star God Parts 1-9, by Cristian Arnautu Assault on Edina 4 (Conclusion), by Steele Ishkabibbl’s Story Part 3, by Ishkabibbl Chapter 2 & Chapter 3, by Jerry Hughart A Single Motion:…

There’s a new egg hunt that is underway. When the community knocks its collective head together, it hurts… but we also get quite a bit done, dontcha’ think? I just hope it doesn’t involve PVC vinyl.

B-Sharp found a couple of little-known books in the back of his local tech store… check ’em out (here and here) on our forum.

Three new themes are now available for your Bungie.net Seventh Column chapter, thanks to poena.dare – two are Pathways Into Darkness-related, but the third (First and Last) is a Halo theme (thus warranting a news post here). Check ’em out! Thanks to SketchFactor for the heads-up.

Hmm. Over at Subnova, HBO forum regular Shishka has put up a new feature – Subnova.comic. The first strip pits some Subnova personalities against… an HBO forum visitor. Ouch.

In case nobody noticed, Finn put up another bit of speculation at the Halo Story page yesterday. (You may or may not agree with the quoted item… but there’s a rebuttal linked at the end.)

Just a few Fan Fiction tidbits today…The Battle of Prometheus , by Brad Weiler Halo: FotF(Part 3), by Frensa Geran Ishkabibbl’s Story Part 2, by IshkabibblGo read…

Buddha writes to point out a site he’s built for the Halo parties he and his buddies hold. It’s called, appropriately enough, Halo-party.com.

The server crash last week put a crimp in the image processing, but I’m getting back on track. Here are the 6 backlogged desktops – enjoy the Wallpaper section. (I particularly like the Warthog one…)

That Weasel Television has added a number of movies to its mirror list:Halo Done Quick Part 1 (qt and wmp versions)Blood Gulch BalletTotal HaloHurt (qt and wmp versions)We’ve added them to our mirror lists here – go get ’em if you haven’t already! Update: Lion points out that he’s mirrored the Total Halo movie, as…

Before I get yelled at by Opie301 again for forgetting, Finn put up a hefty Story Page update just before our box died a few days ago – it’s now visible to the masses. Go read!

During the past week, we’ve had word of several mods/skins for other games, using Halo designs. A couple are now housed here. First up is agentJ64’s Master Chiefette model for Jedi Knight II – pretty sweet! Then, we’ve got a Halo skin for Counter-Strike made by rdc^kosh (and found by Matt Smith) – with a…
