Halo: Fall Of Reach Comic Announced By Marvel

Marvel and 343 Industries revealed today that they are joining forces to create a comic book adaptation of the novel Halo: Fall of Reach. The Brian Reed-penned comic explores the backstory of Halo hero Master Chief.

"Before he was Master Chief, he was John -- a boy stolen from his parents and conscripted into the SPARTAN II program on the fortress world of Reach," reads the announcement from Marvel and 343. "But as the galaxy falls into dark times, one doctor must pay a terrible price to keep humanity from being destroyed."

Halo: Fall of Reach - Boot Camp #1, the first of a four-part series, will hit stores in September. It will cost $3.99. The full cover art, created by Felix Ruiz, is below.
