On 1/16/04, Frank O'Connor posted his first weekly update. At the time, ''[[Halo 2]]'' was still under a veil of secrecy. Frankie had just seen a promotional poster by [[Lorraine McLees]] and wanted to include it his weekly update, however it was not possible at the time. So instead Frankie created a horrible artist's impression of it. Instead of [[Master Chief]] holding a gun, Frankie drew him with a lightsaber, "because guns are hard to draw".<ref>[http://forums.bungie.org/halo/archive12.pl?read=364018 Bungie Forum]</ref> It did not look quite right so Frankie drew in some eyes and mouth and labeled it '''"Mister Chief"'''. | On 1/16/04, Frank O'Connor posted his first weekly update.

Frankie got such a response from fans that he decided to include another Mister Chief image in his weekly updates from then on. Mister Chief has been made in many different styles, including imitation [[Wikipedia:Caravaggio|Caravaggio]] and Japanese manga. Most ideas come from fan requests. | Frankie got such a response from fans that he decided to include another Mister Chief image in his weekly updates from then on.
