Golf Wang. Brony.

I got a chance to read it again. So good.

It was so human, and touched on more than the base sci-fi, military, and action that Halo is made of. Really great.

Could easily translate to an animated short (i.e. put into Halo Legends) or live-action.

Is there more like it? I'm honestly not that familiar; are there more media based on regular people in the Halo universe? Do you think there should be more of it, seen in a short story, comic, 343i game?

Side-note: I believe other than a Halo or the Covenant civil war, New Mombasa is just the most interesting part of the Halo franchise. It just seems iconic, and some of (I think) the best parts of the series (beginning of Halo 2, ODST) are in this city.

Thoughts?

Yea, this is the main reason I love ODST and Halo 2 among the rest.

Yeah there was a comic book called halo:uprising which you can get in hardback on amazon. It tells the story of 2 civillians escaping from a Covenant controlled city called Cleveland, just before Halo 3. Its alright to read but Second Sunrise over New Mombassa was more interesting to me and uprising is not as good as some of the other comics that Marvel have released since.

Yes, Uprising takes place in some future faraway city called "Cleveland" that doesn't exist in today's world... oh wait...

On topic: You should read Evolutions, it's a collection of short stories about the Halo universe, most of which are about more regular people, not Spartans.

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

Where can you read Second Sunrise over New Mombasa? Is it it's own book?

Let's be honest, it could be a lot worse.

Your risght I just relized how cool New Mombasa really is.

It's part of the Halo Graphic Novel.
