Did anyone notice that if you look into the chieftain's eyes, the symbol of the arbiter is there? 96.246.166.18 16:05, 25 October 2013 (EDT)

Lasky's old friend

This is just a theory, but I believe Lasky's old friend might be Michael Sullivan. With computer hacking/slicing skills like that, he would probably be able to figure out who is the spy. Either that or it could be April Orenski, but it seems most likely. Anyway, hope we find out soon. It would be nice to know what happened to the other two survivors. But in the meantime, does anybody else have any ideas who Lasky's old friend might be? --Xamikaze330 [Transmission|Commencing] 15:46, 13 January 2014 (EST)Xamikaze330

Issue 5

So are we going to sit here and pretend that issue 5 is not talking about the UNSC Spirit of Fire, because the UNSC Spirit of Fire did lose contact with the rest of the UNSC In 2531 followering its disappearance to the Forerunner Shield World, which is 27 years prior to 2558 during the same time the events of Halo Escalation takes place, close to 30 years as mentioned in the summary. I mean like that's a pretty big coincidence to drop unless they pull some maneuver and have something to back it up.-Bronze98(not sure how to leave proper signatures)

It is SOF because Waypoint, when they realized how painful obvious the teaser blurb was, deleted all comments about the SOF from the Escalation thread on their forums and declared it a leak. Despite 343 giving Dark Horse the blurbs to tease the issue... SMH. ProphetofTruth (talk) 02:18, 19 January 2014 (EST)
Here's the main thread. --Our vengeance is at hand. Gravemind.svg (Talk to me.) 07:20, 19 January 2014 (EST)
This wiki is about the facts and canon of Halo. Saying it's definitely the Spirit of Fire is still supposition at this point, not a known fact. I would say caution is in order until it becomes a fact when amending wiki entries. I'm not in the loop so I honestly don't know and I too think (and hope) it is the Spirit of Fire, but recall before the Halo 4 Visual Guide came out, most people 'knew' that the Infinity-berthed frigates were Charon-class and how much editing needed to occur here when it was revealed it was the Strident-class...don't jump the gun. -ScaleMaster117 (talk) 12:01, 19 January 2014 (EST)

I believe its more likely the former UNSC Belleraphon ,with Cole being alive, they hint at it in evolutions, the ship is lost for over 30 years, the Spirit of fire is not important enough ,Cutter is a regular officer, the scientist can't really contribute anything since the UNSC already has more knowledge and the covenant are no longer important, the spartans while a good asset are not that important, Infity is of course far more powerfull than the SoF. Now Cole is a game changer. --GabeScott (talk) 07:41, 14 February 2014 (EST)
