One of the nice things about the Halo franchise is that the mythology has expanded into plenty of media beyond the games, meaning there's always something to occupy fans in between game releases and new multiplayer expansions. When it comes to comic books, the franchise recently shifted from Marvel to Dark Horse. Halo: Initiation wasn't a terribly memorable debut for Dark Horse, offering a generic, wooden account of Sarah Palmer's rise from Helljumper to Spartan.
Halo: Escalation is Dark Horse's first ongoing Halo comic. It's set shortly after the events of Halo 4 and, more specifically, in the aftermath of the Spartan Ops mode that focused on Palmer, Thomas Lasky, and the crew of the UNSC Infinity rather than Master Chief. Between the new creative team (including Halo 4 writer Chris Schlerf and artist Sergio Ariño) and a wider focus in terms of supporting cast, Escalation is more immediately successful than Initiation was. But it certainly still has its problems.
