That ending wasn't real, it was just a joke between Elites and Humans, if you read the book, "Halo: First Strike", then you would know what happens to Johnson.

I can't believe people are coming out with this now... I've seen at least 10 threads like this, and he's been a character in halo 2 and 3 already. For some reason, people only notice this when he is announced as a character in firefight, something that is completely seperate from the storyline.
In answer to your question, he did escape from the first halo on a pelican and the legendary ending was just a joke.

No what really happened is he died when he, Keyes and Jenkins were attacked by the Flood. But then Bungie made up some story about Boren's Syndrome in the First Strike book to explain how he actually survived the Flood attack. That is still nonsense because even if the Flood can't assimilate something, they still make sure to destroy it (i.e. Sentinels).

So because he died earlier in the game, the Legendary ending was just, as others said, a joke (I know I LOLed!). Then Bungie realized that they had casually killed one of the most useful characters in the game and decided to bring him back. Now he just goes wherever they feel like putting him, because "it's a -BLAM!-ing game".

Yes, but you're all forgetting that Halo CE had many Johnsons ;)

Halo CE's Legendary Ending was a joke, not canon to the series.

Also the story 'Breaking Quarantine' by Tsutomu Nihei in the Halo Graphic Novel shows how he managed to escape from the Flood in CE.

Pretty sure THAT'S canon.

It is, because in the Graphic Novel it details Rtas 'Vadum's story on the Infinite Succour and how he lost his left mandibles too.

Actually, if you read the Halo graphic novel, Johnson escapes the flood with harsh words and his M6C. Then the Legendary ending to Halo 1 is, as previously mentioned, non canon.

You know what I hate? People who post godawful threads like this and get a lot of attention, and then people post threads that actually put thought into them get nothing at all.

Yeah, that just happened to me in the Reach forums, so I guess a lot of people are just really stupid when they give a stupid person attention, and then a bunch of other idiots give the person attention by giving them the same stupid answer again and again.

Look... I'm on bungiepedia!

Did you notice that ALL marines were copies of eachother? Jenkins died like 20 times in the campaign... if you're the kind of person who doesn't acknowledge that bungie reused Johnson's (and all other marines except the Bumblebee pilot) skins.

My ROFLsniper goes POW!

(Warning Spoilers!)Jhonson gets onto Polaski's pelican at the last minute and is landed on an asteroid when chief is drifting. When the pillar crashed, it shot the cryo pods out that were being used and chief finds 3 of them but 2 are dead, but the other is a spartan named linda. She had sustained nearly lethal wounds on a orbital platform over Reach and had been put in a cryo pod to see if she could be saved. Shortly after chief found the pods, a covenant cruiser shows up and the pelican that jhonson is in, shoots rockets at it to lead it away from chief. They lead it to a large asteroid with craters they could hide in. it turns back toward the remains of halo and the pelican goes to the chief and they boaard and capture the covenant ship. Master chief's armor is damaged somehow and an engineer fixes it. Later on, they figure out why jhonson wasnt infected by the flood. He has a plasma disease that affects the nervous system that flood clearly dont like. Anyway, i did this completely by memory so i know i left out alot of details, so if i got something wrong, please correct me. =]

True, but the point I was trying to make was that Johnson did die at some point in Halo:CE. Then Bungie came up with some (barely) plausible scenarios to explain how he "survived" in order to justify having brought him back for Halo 2.

None of the explanations were given until 2 years after the first game, giving Bungie plenty of time to come up with the back story to explain his survival. I mean, the actual depiction of his escape (in "Breaking Quarantine") came out after Halo 2 was released.
