The Master Chief Wages War in Halo: Uprising #1

The Eisner Award-winning team of writer Brian Bendis, artist Alex Maleev and colorist Matt Hollingsworth are back to bring you one of the most anticipated new series of the year-Halo: Uprising! Based on the hit video game series, but perfect for fans both new and old, Halo: Uprising #1 begins the tale of the heroic Master Chief's struggle to reach Earth before the evil Covenant's engines of war get there first! Set in the time period between Halo 2 and Halo 3, Halo: Uprising answers all those questions that fans have been asking for years, and introduces new characters into the Halo mythos! And now fans can get their first look at the stunning interior art of Maleev, along with the first three covers to this can't-miss limited series!

"It was an honor to be asked to add something to the Halo pot," said writer Brian Michael Bendis. "To bring to Halo what the graphic novel brought, some humanity and perspective-something you can't get in the game based solely on the nature of the different mediums. Alex and I also have tried to create a juicy sci-fi story that even if you don't play or know anything about Halo, you could buy this and enjoy it just on its own character and storytelling momentum. But if you are a Halo die-hard you will find connections, characters, and references to not only the three Halo games, but the novels as well."

Fans have fallen in love with Halo's mix of intricate storytelling, stunning visuals and intense action, all of which Bendis & Maleev bring to Halo: Uprising #1. If you're looking to quench your thirst for authentic Halo action and thrills, then don't miss this bold new limited series!

The Avengers Battle The Autobots!

The pop culture collision of the summer continues in Marvel & IDW Publishing's New Avengers/Transformers #2 (of 4), as the Autobots and Avengers come to blows...with each other? Writer Stuart Moore and artist Tyler Kirkham assemble to bring you this clash of heroes...while Doctor Doom and Megatron lay in wait! But what is the connection between these diabolical villains? Why was Spider-Man taken hostage? Answers come fast and furious, but when the dust settles, there may not be anyone left standing to prevent Armageddon!

"In the debut issue, we built slowly to the big first meeting of these two famous groups, and here's where the readers' patience pays off," said editor Bill Rosemann. "The Avengers--who have been pushed to a violent place due to the Decepticons chicanery--and the Autobots-who have rolled in to squash the rising tempers-run head-on into each other...as blood-and oil-will flow!"

Fans and critics everywhere are lauding New Avengers/Transformers, with Aaron Stueve of BrokenFrontier.Com raving that, "on this book [Marvel & IDW] do a bang up job... The story is at times subtle, at times sharp, and always good."

"This a great book for fans to share with friends and family," added Nick Marino of ComicNewsInternational.Com. "Tyler Kirkham has a great touch for the characters in this story."

Robots In Disguise, Earth's Mightiest Heroes and the most powerful villains either team have ever faced-what else do you need? It's time to assemble and roll out with New Avengers/Transformers #2!
