Helljumper (Halo)

Comics legend Peter David and up-and-coming artist Eric Nguyen bring a whole new HALO story to life! When the colony planet Ariel sends out a mysterious distress signal, it's up to the UNSC's elite, highly-skilled special-ops Marines, the Orbital Drop Shock Troopers from the 105th, to find out what's happening. Also known as ODSTs or "Helljumpers," these soldiers are some of the toughest in the galaxy...and some of the roughest as well. When the distress signal comes, two Helljumpers will find themselves at the center of the mystery on Ariel, and before it's solved, they'll have to put their friendship--and their lives--on the line.COLLECTING: Halo: Helljumper #1-5

Helljumpers. The name strikes fear in the hearts of even the most ruthless Covenant warriors. But when the Helljumpers respond to a call from a remote science colony, they soon discover that the colony is deserted, seemingly abandoned by every man, woman and child who once lived there. The lone body on the planet, a communications officer, appears to have died of fright. The discovery of a large Covenant military presence raises more questions than it answers. And when two Helljumpers get cut off from the rest of their squad, they'll have to battle through impossible odds to make it home.COLLECTING: Halo: Helljumper #1-5
