According to this article, "Halo: Uprising is a four issue mini-series". But they still talk about an "ongoing series", which is what Marvel originally announced - it sounds to me like Uprising is just the first story arc, after which the series will continue with further arcs starting with issue 5.
Basically: Can someone create an article covering the series as a whole? I'm not completely sure what it should be called, though, since Halo (comics) is taken. 68.44.13.236 18:35, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
Yes, as soon as we see that there will actually be an issue 5. 69.19.14.24 08:41, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
Where did all this plot stuff come from? Userpie talk to me! 02:40, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
It should remain a stub until it get a little expanded, a picture should not make it start class automatically. Since it has an external link for reception it needs to be improved. Do not revert my edit please until at least that is fixed.
This article seems to be written almost as an... er, advertisement, rather than an article with information such as plot details. I haven't read these, but maybe someone who has should go over the article... 65.78.105.15 ( talk) 23:44, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
I see this has been nominated. I've dropped a note in at the Comics Project talk page so we can get an extra set of eyes - I've quickly skimmed through it and it looks solid and you've got plenty of sources from the more reliable online comics press. I did update the infobox to a more appropriate one and tweaked a few things but there are no major problems I saw.
I did find a review of the second issue at Comics Bulletin if that is useful [1]. I'll have a look around and see if there is anything else I can dig up. ( Emperor ( talk) 13:51, 14 May 2009 (UTC))
I didn't think of myself as a fanboy, but took issue with this description in the Bendis caption:
"Brian Michael Bendis struggled to create a proper tone for the normally-silent protagonist, the Master Chief".
I wouldn't describe Master Chief as normally-silent, he talks throughout the games - certainly engaing in conversation with his superiors and AIs. Furthermore, the source it is cited to says this:
"How did you deal with a main character that's faceless and almost totally silent? Brian Bendis: That was a bigger challenge for Alex. What I write in the script is any feeling or thought that he might be having and not expressing, and it's up to Alex to find that perfect body gesture that shows that off."
It is the interviewer's assertion that Master Chief is silent (elsewhere he is better described as taciturn) and even then, Bendis doesn't say it was a challenge. I have therefore changed the caption to "Brian Michael Bendis, writer for Halo: Uprising"

I honestly can't answer this question. I have looked around and it seems that everything of importance is covered. I am not an expert in the area.

Everything appears to be favorable and written without any peacock terms. I am not an expert in the field so I may have missed something.

No sign of edit warring or reverting. Slow, gradual expansion of text and consistent. Two issues mentioned on talk page (title change and formatting), but neither seem controversial or potentially destabilizing. Article meets this requirement.

Strong fair use rationale for File:Halo uprising1.png. Is it strong enough for FA? I would say there is a strong chance that it would be accepted. Deals directly with the topic and art would be necessary to depict a strongly visual medium. Image size at 250px might be too large, but consensus seems to favor this (a better size would be between 180 and 220 px) so this is not a component of the requirement. Other image, File:Bendis.jpg, is free and passes. OTRS seems to check out. Image placement could be better, but not a component of this requirement.
