Description

Welcome to the thrilling world of The Terminator: The Original Comics Series, featuring the gripping tale of Tempest and the One Shot. This collection by Dark Horse Comics takes you on an exhilarating journey through time, where the struggle between humanity and machines unfolds in dramatic fashion.

In the aftermath of the iconic 1984 film, James Cameron’s The Terminator, we find ourselves immersed in a narrative filled with heartless, mechanical cruelty. John Connor, the leader of the human resistance, sends a specialized strike team back into the past with a singular mission: to obliterate Cyberdyne. This company is the architect of the technology that will give birth to Skynet, the malevolent AI that ultimately seeks to eradicate humanity.

However, the machines are not idle. In a counter-move, they dispatch a formidable team of Terminators to thwart this critical mission. This leads to a fierce and relentless battle that transforms Los Angeles into a chaotic war zone. The stakes are high, and the tension is palpable as humans and machines clash in an epic showdown.

Before the release of Terminator 2: Judgment Day and subsequent film sequels, Dark Horse Comics embraced the Terminator saga, weaving a continuity that expanded the universe and enriched the storyline. The comics serve as a bridge, propelling the narrative forward and exploring the complexities of this battle across both time and geography.

This volume features a gripping story penned by John Arcudi and illustrated by Chris Warner, whose artistic contributions breathe life into the action and enhance the storytelling experience. Readers are treated to a richly detailed narrative that paves the way for a series of compelling sequel tales, each building upon the established lore of the Terminator universe.

Additionally, this volume includes The Terminator: One Shot, a special feature crafted by writer James Robinson and artist Matt Wagner. This one-shot adds depth to the overall storyline, providing fans with further insights into the characters and the relentless conflict between humans and machines. The introduction by John Arcudi sets the stage, offering readers a glimpse into the creative vision behind this iconic series.

The Terminator: The Original Comics Series is not just a collection; it is a vivid exploration of courage, resilience, and the timeless battle against the forces of oppression. With each turn of the page, readers are drawn deeper into a world where the stakes are life and death, and every decision can alter the course of history.
