Most of you probably know this, but there is the Marathon symbol on the side of the Pillar of Autumn. You can see it fairly clearly in the first cut-scene of the last level, The Maw. It is actually pretty cool, since it is so big. Amazing how many places Bungie sticks that thing, like in between the A and L of Halo on the cover of the manual.

The cutscene at the begining of the Maw is my favorite of all the Halo cutscenes. The sight of a crashed and marooned ship with the Marathon emblem on it takes me back to Marathon 2 and conjures up images of Durandal's crashed ship, the security officer stranded, Tycho's crashed ship, and Fatum Iustum Stultorum. Every time I watch that cutscene, even for the 7,777,777th time, it still makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up.
