David
Juesoni stopped in with a link to David, a new machinima series he's starting. A bit strange, but it works. Apparently, the next one will be shown live, today. In fact, it's set to go down in about 2 hours. Read the post for more details. (Louis Wu 17:43:04 UTC) (permalink)
Brute Pimpin'
Darknesshasfallen was inspired by the fanart in last night's Weekly Update... and whipped up his own offering. I was amused. (Louis Wu 17:40:06 UTC) (permalink)
Halo on Canvas - if you're in the UK
Ross Mills ran across some Halo artwork for sale on Amazon (UK-only) - he found a Halo 3 piece, and a Halo Wars piece. There doesn't seem to be any search that narrows down ONLY to Halo pieces - but this search will show you 33 images, 15 of which are Halo-related. It's unclear whether these are authorized by MS or not. Update: According to SketchFactor (who checked with Microsoft), this company is not licensed to sell these prints; if that sort of thing matters to you, you should probably avoid buying from them.

Comic Saturday
A number of comics were announced on our forum in the past 12 hours or so:
- Juesoni told us about Reconnaissance Omega Special Chapter, now on its 9th page (out of 10)
- The Catfish announced that 2501 Episode 6 was out - with a cliffhanger
- Adam Susskind is back, with word of Chaos Theory Episode 8: Fear (Part 2), coming this Tuesday (we mentione Part 1 back on last Tuesday)
- anthraxgoon wanted folks to know that X36 Chapter One Episode 14 is now online - with new math, and new death
The number of strips continues to increase! (Louis Wu 17:31:03 UTC) (permalink)
Now THAT'S an update!
I'm not really sure what happened, but it looks like someone broke in and used urk's computer to write up a fake Bungie Weekly Update. That's the only explanation I can come up with for an update so chock-full of actual information, straight talk and undisguised answers. Highlights:
- A Mythic-specific playlist will go live the day of Halo Wars' release
- Elites will NOT appear in Halo 3: ODST
- A chunk of the backstory has been posted to justify this decision
- fan artwork and fan whining are both spotlighted
- Luke's drawing from last week is confirmed NOT to be Sandtrap
- Juicy details from the week's progress on Halo 3: ODST are provided
Since whoever actually DID post this in urk's name will likely soon be killed by Bungie ninjas, we've placed a copy in our Weekly Update Archive for safekeeping. Read it quickly, in case they get us, too! (Louis Wu 01:02:02 UTC) (permalink)
