New Guest Strip At Halo Babies
Tina "Jaxx" Leyk does the guest strip this week at Halo Babies. Thanks mrsmiley.
Death by intelligence.
A Wealth Of Embarrassment
There's a Guest Strip explosion on Stuntmutt's blog as Louis Wu clears out the stored strips. Stuntmutt just asks that unmodified AutoMagic strips be posted in the HBO forum instead.
Halo Fans Acting Their Age
New guest strip by Stuntmutt over at Halo Babies today; also a new One One Se7en that cuts the other way. Thanks mr smiley.
He Likes To Find Things Out... We Think
[image:8885 left hspace=5 vspace=5 border=0] Tycho over at Penny Arcade today notes a Halo-related art submission to their Child's Play charity auction; an interpretation of Melissa, the Op from the I Love Bees ARG, by CharlesAllenHarris.
"Yesterday" by The Beatles, adapted for Halo 2
Yesterday, the Covenant fleet seemed so far away
Now it looks as if they'd like to play
Oh, Earth was safer yesterday.
Suddenly, I'm twice the SPARTAN that I used to be,
With an AI hanging out with me.
Oh, yesterday came suddenly.
Why she had to go I don't know she wouldn't say.
I shot something wrong, now I long for yesterday.
Yesterday, Halo 1 was such an easy game to play.
Now from the Flood I need to hide away
I should've stood in bed yesterday.
Mm mm mm mm mm.

Opening The Floodgates
Since HBO isn't accepting One One Se7en guest strips anymore, Stuntmutt figured he would put two up on his blog. I hope he knows what he's getting himself in for...
Speak Softly And Carry A Plasma Sword
Bluestone of EchoFourNineteen takes a turn as a guest artist at Halo Babies this week. Thanks mrsmiley.
Spectres Are Red, Wraiths Are Blue...
... flood spores smell funny, and so do you. Fancy yourself a rhymin' fool as well as a Bungie fan and you could win in The Junkyard's Write a Poem for Bungie Contest. First place includes a strategy guide, hat and t-shirt, a Master Chief action figure and 5000 Junkyard Store credits. Contest begins November 29, 2004. Thanks mrsmiley.
That's Gotta Hurt
Mister Chief returns with a new toy in a guest Halo Babies strip by BOLL. Thanks mrsmiley.
Best Tools For Machinima?
Slashdot has a post up today where a Creative Writing major asks about tools for machinima; it mentions Halo and Sims 2; both of which are used by Rooster Teeth Productions to make Red vs Blue and The Strangerhood, respectively.
Stop, Children, What's That Sound
Stuntmutt today praises Halo 2's surround sound, but points out a sound that might have been added to good effect.
Smells Like Halo Spirit
Online comic Dork Tower shows what happens when Halo fans and grunge fans collide... uncomfortably.
And Now For My Next Trick
[image:8779 left hspace=5 vspace=5 border=0] I've written up a short account with photos of my recent trip to London-- or, rather, the side trip to have a few beers with Stuntmutt, author/artist of the Halo comic One One Se7en.
Stuntmutt
Stuntmutt prepares to enjoy a brew in the Paddington Street Station in London.
Apple Store Opening, Regent Street
Conveniently enough, this Apple Store on Regent Street in London was scheduled to open at 10 AM, November 20, my last day in London. Unfortunately, rather than queueing up the night before with the other Apple zealots, I was out having a few beers with Stuntmutt, meaning that by the time I arrived at 11:00, there was a six hour wait-- far longer than I could afford to stay in town and still make my flight.
