Showcasing chapters written by Halo 5: Guardians lead writer Brian Reed and Halo 4 senior writer Chris Schlerf, this convenient edition collects Halo: Initiation #1-#3 and Halo: Escalation #1-#12, and features a complete cover gallery and process pages.
Halo 4's Spartan Ops continues here as the UNSC Infinity battles the Covenant for control of the all-powerful Forerunner Janus Key. Plus, Spartan Tanaka's thrilling origin story revealed—all in this volume collecting Halo: Escalation issues #13–#18 by Duffy Boudreau (BlackAcre), Sergio Ari√±o (Ms. Marvel), and Douglas Franchin (Person of Interest). The art is really great. It feels emotional and really adds to the writing. The colors are vivid from panel to panel. I really like it. Halo: Escalation is a fantastic series.—Unleash the Fanboy
