*After the Battle of Reach, she was presumed dead by the Office of Naval Intelligence, although no body was obviously found. She was mentioned in a memorial plaque inside the [[ONI Alpha Base]] on Earth.<ref name="alph"/> This is odd, considering that John-117, Will-043, Fred-104, Cortana and Avery Johnson knew she had fled with Kelly-087. However, it is possible that the memorial plaque in question was erected before this news reached Earth. | *After the Battle of Reach, she was presumed dead by the Office of Naval Intelligence, although no body was obviously found.

*She makes her first visual appearance in [[Halo Legends]] episode [[ | *She makes her first visual appearance in [[Halo Legends]] episode [[The Package]], in which she appears to be contradictorily younger than she is in the books. Instead of black, graying hair, she is also depicted as having blond hair. However, the younger appearance could be due to time spent in cryo sleep which stops metabolism, effectively stopping aging. | ||
*Two of Dr. Halsey's statements in The Package are references to similar statements made in the first two Halo games. She tells John-117 that she slept well "No thanks to [[The Covenant|their]] driving," which is echoed in ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' when he tells Cortana he slept well no thanks to her driving. She also tells John, "Don't make a girl a promise, if you know you can't keep it," which Cortana would tell him in ''Halo 2''. | *Two of Dr. Halsey's statements in The Package are references to similar statements made in the first two Halo games.

*Halsey's appearance changes drastically from [[The Package]] to [[Homecoming]]. In The Package she is depicted as a fairly young woman with short, blond hair and no glasses. This may or may not have been reflected in the later appearance of Cortana, who was created from the replicated neural pathways of Dr. Halsey herself. Her appearance in Homecoming however, is more accurately based off her description from the books. It should be noted that various concepts in The Package, and Halo Legends in general, are considered an artistic license. | *Halsey's appearance changes drastically from [[The Package]] to [[Homecoming]].
