I used to be a big Halo fan when I was younger, now I’ve switched to other stuff like Warhammer 40k, mostly because there’s a lot more of it out there, but I picked this up for like 5 dollars after I saw that Tsotumi Nihei, the author of Blame! (one of my favorite mangas), wrote one of the stories in here, and woah! I liked the other stuff in here, especially the one by Moebius, but Tsutomu Nihei’ dart is crazy beautiful and horrifying. Definitely worth checking out if you interested in Nihei’s work or if you down with Halo. The only thing I’m disappointed with is that there’s not a lettering artist on some of the stories and just rely on the Halo font, which is fine, but I never realized how much character lettering brings to a book.
