"This is the one Marathon related image here. Marathon is a game by Bungie software where you run around trying to take your colony spaceship back from a bunch of alien slave traders. Basically you blow stuff up. That is the rocket launcher in the Marine's hand- the favorite weapon in network play."

Craig also included a zoomed in portion of this image, describing it as "the full resolution of the file."

About: In July 1997 Craig sent two images he did for the Marathon Trilogy Box Set to Marathon Central. Craig described these on alt.games.marathon as follows:

"The first is the marine w/spanker from the inside of the cd cover. The second is a compilation of the ideas and early comps that I went through to arrive at the final image. I think Bungie liked the top one the best."

The trilogy image as used on the inside cover of the Marathon Trilogy CD released on May 1, 1997. (Photograph courtesy of Bob-B-Q)

This isn't the whole picture. There's a wider version on marathon.org that shows some health packs and other items on the ground.
