![]() See, back in the day, scientists colonized the moon a couple years before SkyNet caused the robopocalypse. The plot has to do with Sarah’s Slammers, a resistance sect, who get some visitors from the moon. ![]() Hell, there’s no reason for them to even have the fake skin at all, since they don’t really do much in terms of trying to fit in with the humans. SkyNet itself is a cackling supervillain while the Terminators (who are usually wearing shades for no real reason) have way too much personality. ![]() Despite being incredibly violent, dark, and reveling in a body count, the tone is completely out of whack at times, and it almost feels like Terminator reimagined as a Saturday morning cartoon…with a lot of blood. That means coming up with an extension of that universe using only the concepts of the first movie, which in the grand scheme feels kind of half-realized.Ĭonsidering it takes place in 2031, it’s hard to say whether it should be called a sequel or a prequel, but it deals with the resistance’s never-ending war with the machines. NOW’s Terminatoris a complete trip to read because it came out before Terminator 2was even a thing. Thomas Tenney did most of the art, though Tony Akins and Robin Ator did an issue or two. It started in ’88 with NOW Comics and their 17-issue Terminatorseries, originally written by a revolving door of Fred Schiller, Tony Caputo, and Jack Herman, before Ron Fortier took over as the main writer. ![]()
