Halo: Escalation #7

Halo: Escalation #7 from Dark Horse brings the battlefield tension of the beloved video game universe to the comic page, with cover art by Sparth showcasing armored Spartan soldiers — Master Chief prominent in the foreground, assault rifle in hand — surveying a sweeping alien landscape under a sky streaked with incoming ships and energy beams. A massive Covenant or UNSC vessel looms overhead, its angular hull dominating the upper left while additional Spartans hold their ground behind cover across the open terrain. Writer Brian Reed and artist Sergio Ariño continue their run on this ongoing series, making this a solid entry point for fans eager to explore the Halo universe beyond the games.
