More on Halo Comics from Marvel
CaptainTony stopped by with a couple of links that shed more light on the 'two new Halo comic series from Marvel' story we mentioned last week. Marvel News has a publicity piece on the series, and IGN did an interview with the writers behind the comics. Salient points: The first series will be called 'Halo: Helljumpers', and it will focus on ODSTs. Both series expand the existing Halo storyverse. And (maybe most intriguingly... or maybe not), as of the date of the IGN article (Feb 8), Issue 4 of the long-delayed Uprising series "is in the process of being colored, and [...] a firm release date will be announced in the near future." Heh. We'll see.

Can't finish what you started? Start something else.
Wow, this is just... silly. Back in mid-2006, Marvel announced that they'd be publishing a monthly Halo comic, starting a few months before the release of Halo 3. The delivery of these issues has become a joke - the fourth (and last) comic is STILL not out, having had its release date pushed back AGAIN, to March 4, 2009 (given that it's been pushed back more than a dozen times, the chances that we see it in March are slim to none). With that horrible record, you'd think Marvel would stay pretty far away from the Halo franchise... but you'd be wrong. According to io9.com, they used New York Comic Con to announce that they're launching not one, but TWO new Halo-based comic series, the first this summer (a five-issue run), the second, 'Halo: Spartan Black', next winter. Thanks to Bongo for the heads-up (and subsequent rise in blood pressure). (Louis Wu 21:17:57 UTC)

Mythic DLC available March 3?
According to VideoGamer.com, the downloadable version of the Mythic Map Pack will be released on Xbox LIVE Marketplace on March 3. If that's true, you'll be able to buy the three maps on the same day (in the US) as you could acquire them by buying the Halo Wars Collector's Edition. We'll wait and see if this date actually holds up - it seems unlikely, given that the original bundling of the maps with the Halo Wars CE appeared to have been done to help sell that particular product. Thanks to Jtyettis, at NeoGAF, for the heads-up. Update: False alarm. urk clarified (on NeoGAF) that VideoGamer simply misinterpreted the Halo Wars CE release announcement. Bah.
