They came from another time to ensure that the future would belong solely to the machines. They are Terminators - indestructible killing engines hiding inside shells of flesh and blood. Tireless, fearless, merciless, unencumbered by human emotion, dedicated to the complete eradication of mankind. But despite the frailty of human flesh, nothing is as immortal as the human spirit, and even the strongest metal will bend by the will of a mother fighting for the future of her children. Dark Horse Comics has long been regarded as the heavyweight champion of adapting film blockbusters to graphic fiction, and The Terminator is one of the finest examples of bringing top comics talents to the expansion of a premier action/adventure mythos.

Great addition to the original movie,

This review is from: The Terminator Omnibus, Vol. 1 (Paperback)
The stories in this volume follow the original movie and are top notch. Nothing against Arnold, but it was nice to read some terminator stories not centered around his character(s). Not too heavy on social commentary like Dark Horse's Aliens comics, but there is plenty of action and it was a fun read.

This review is from: The Terminator Omnibus, Vol. 1 (Paperback)
I was nicely surprised at how good these stories were in this omnibus. If your a fan of the movies, Dark Horse really provides alot of extra in this volume. Not to mention for the price you get alot of TPB.

This review is from: The Terminator Omnibus, Vol. 1 (Paperback)
This series was pretty much crap, though it was more entertaining than McG's "magnum opus" of poo. I enjoyed where they were trying to go, but the mish-mash of artists and the lack of true depth left me wanting my Sara Connor Chronicles back. Maybe Dark Horse's next Terminator series will be sweeter, they have improved their writing/art stable over the years... Still, buy it if you can get it cheap and feel like wasting an hour or two seeing where they take it and arguing with yourself over how you would have improved it... If you can only afford one of these though, go for Omnibus Volume 2, it's a little better fare.
Just for kicks, Dark Horse should acquire the rights to the three "NOW Comics" series and Omnibus them. They are even crappier, but it'd be a good hour or so of laughing hysterically at their attempt to seriously chronicle the adventures of "Sarah's Slammers" in pre-Terminator 2 terms...
