The Codex Series

The Codex Series is the name for the over-arching story of the machinima series The Codex
and The Heretic
, similar to how The Star Wars Trilogy included both Star Wars and other movies. The name is possibly derived from the web address of the original series, www.TheCodexSeries.com, but it is unclear if this name was planned from the beginning or if the idea came from the web address itself after the series was expanded.

The Codex

The Codex is a 20-episode online machinima series, set in Bungie Studios' Halo video game universe. Along with its sister series, The Heretic
, it is part of the greater Codex Series
. It relates the story of a Covenant invasion of a Human world in order to recover a Forerunner artifact, and the story of the Humans resistance of that invasion. Since its initial release on February 9 2005, The Codex has earned a large international fan base. In his September 29 2005 Long Tail blog entry, Chris Anderson, Editor-in-Chief of Wired magazine, described The Codex as the best machinima he had ever seen and an excellent example of his Long Tail theory. The Codex is the highest trafficked peer-produced Halo machinima series in existence, ranking second only to the another machinima series called Red vs Blue
.

The Heretic

The Heretic is the second machinima series made by Edgeworks Entertainment. Like its predecessor, The Heretic is set in Bungie Studios' Halo video game universe. It is a prequel to the popular series The Codex
. The Heretic tells the story of how the Codex was found, and how the various characters in The Codex came to be involved with it.
