Subject: Halo: Cryptum and Halo 4 logos identical! Connection?

We will know soon enough, but it will require thought. Deep thought. Mendicant Bias must be found. The Mantle will soon follow.

The "Halo" logo on the cover of Halo: Cryptum and logo for Halo 4, are identical, save the number "4" in the Halo 4 logo. This may connect the two in a way, perhaps Cryptum and its upcoming two books in the series tying into Halo 4 more than previously expected. If not, it's a coincidence to take note of.

Good eye! But yeah I heard Cryptum was supposed to explain the Halo universe post-H3.

There is a certain point of tolerance that should never be reached.

Go figured, I think the 2nd book will lead off with information to 4, and the 3rd book will fill between 4 and 5

Let's hope so. I'm just unbelievably pumped for the new parts of the Halo Universe. :P

Not yet, cryptum is a massive prequel though we can infer the future off of a few things in the book.

Not exactly identical. Halo 4 logo has more details in it. I think that's just 343i's style, just like older Halo books have nearly identical logo to the Halo CE logo. Even more identical than what Halo 4 is to Cryptum. But I definitely believe Halo 4 will be more focused on Forerunners.

I started up the heated debate on whether the SPARTAN-II in the cryo tube near the end of Reach is really Linda.
I created the Moa XING avatar pic.
Also I earned the All Star nameplate with this submission to Week 14 All Stars http://www.bungie.net/images/News/Inline11/bwu_0415/art/likea boss.jpg

I wonder how the Cryptum series, Halo 4, the Halo Anniversary terminals, and Karren Traviss' series will all connect...

343 is seemingly tying things together nicely so far. They haven't screwed anything up that really, really matters to the franchise yet, so it's looking great.
