Read the books? If you specifically want to read about Johnson, read Contact Harvest and First Strike.

"I know what the ladies like..."

First Strike and that one comic that was written a long time ago really show how he got out alive. I can't quite remember what the name was though. Halo Graphic Novel?

No that was 'Breaking Quarantine' from the Halo Graphic Novel you're thinking of.

First strike is one of the original three Halo Novels.

Well he's in a particularly fine mood. I guess Lord Hood didn't give him First Strike...

I like how not a single person actually answered the question. Seriously.

I can't answer either though, but it's because I don't know and not because I don't feel like it. :/

The books not only explain your little missing bits of plot, their also really good stories in general.

But to answer your question, I believe he escaped halo 1 in a pelican with a cryo-frozen spartan on board.

In a nutshell, Johnson escaped Installation 04 with a group of Marines (and I think Linda in cryo.) He was picked up after 04 was destroyed when the Chief ran into the pods floating in space. He at first thought that Johnson was infected, but being a Spartan 1 Johnson was able to escape from the Flood with minimal harm, as seen in the Graphic Novel.

He wasn't infected because he had Boren's syndrome when he found a crate full of plasma grenades, where he was heavily radiated from them.

You know, I've seen this bicker back and forth for years, and I'm still inclined to think that as a cover up for his Spartan I status. The Graphic Novel seemed to support him being a Spartan I as well.

Well you can forget about the adjustments to your A-2 scope..

I'd always thought he'd gotten Boren's Syndrome from the Spartan I stuff and the Plasma Grenade crate was covering up how he got it.

'Cause quite frankly he'd need both immunity and badassery to get out of the Quarentine Zone on Alpha Halo. Especially since we learned in the Mona Lisa short story that you don't need to get attacked by an Infection Form to become infected, if they break the skin then Combat Forms can infect people too, takes a little longer though.

Kicked ass. Escaped on a pelican. Then kicked ass all the way home.

That is actually a fairly good thought.
