I liked all the members of Osiris. Tanaka ended up a lot more interesting in the game than she was in the comics. Vale is just awesome anyway, as is Buck. Locke was the only weak link, really, and he was still better than Bungie-era Chief so...

I honestly prefer that Thorne is with Majestic. Him, Ray and Grant have the potential to become actually somewhat interesting characters in the future.

Says Bacon as Thorne is chased through a swamp by a lone jackal.

A convenient detail a lot of people don't mention is that he's survived a spaceship falling from orbit then got shot repeatedly by a needler. He's not exactly in top fighting shape right now.

So he's got the energy to expend in running away from said lone jackal while his suit fails at injecting biofoam like it should normally be doing, rather than closing the distance to said lone jackal and snapping its paper thin neck.

To be honest, that's pretty tame compared to a lot of other shit that happened in this arc

Like

Halsey hacking a contender-class AI. Aka the same type of AI as mendicant bias

And it wasn't allowed by the AI either, because he later expresses shock at being hacked

Let that play around in your mind for a bit and Thorne's jackal situation is pretty tame

It's always the tame shit that's the lamest.

I'm glad the final issue is next week. Then we can just move on

At this point, I just think that Halo's story should move to bookd entirely/ get a novelisation of everything. Comics and games just aren't versatile enough to provide what 343 wants to do with the story.

To be fair, it's not that out there.

But this is like shit you'd expect a standard marine to have to deal with. Not a Spartan. Granted, Thorne's a IV. But even then, he's still a spartan.

Fuck, that's not even marine tier at this point. There's been lone marines who've taken on worse circumstances and either put up a decent fight before they died or even came through it all.

Just because he's a Spartan it doesn't mean he can't get into a bad situation.

A Jackal could easily kill a lone, very badly injured Spartan.

Quote
He'd caught fire in the ambush. The aliens used some kind of projectile that fired long, thin needles - which exploded seconds after impact.
Cochran's insides were meat. Walker and Fincher had filled him up with Biofoam and taped him up - they had even even managed to stop the bleeding - but if the man didn't get to a medic soon, he was a goner.

[...]

Cochran flinched, his side exploded and then he fell to the ground. He went into shock so fast he didn't have time to scream.

[...]

"You know those explosive needles throw a bunch of micro shrapnel. We probably got slivers of the stuff inside of us, too."

-The Fall of Reach


Because that obviously isn't a deadly weapon. Nope, not at all.

Vale learned an entire alien language. On her own. In six months. At the age of eleven.

Oh, and she apparently learned it even better than AI, too.

tbf, this is a universe where basically all diseases are an extremely rare occurrence, and can be cured if they do pop up.

Plus S-IV's augmentations included modifying their blood so they're immune to most toxins and stuff.

I was under the impressuin it was more she learnt a bit and that started an intetest in Xenolinguistics as a career. As in, most of it was learnt through her life and experiences, but she got started as a kid.

People can be better than AIs. It's not unheard of.
