Calling all Terminator fans! It looks like Dynamite Entertainment is about to blow our minds with a new comic series that's going to give the franchise a fresh twist! Buckle up, because writer Declan Shalvey is promising something special – a Terminator comic that's both spine-tingling and emotionally resonant.
This new series isn't going to be your typical Terminator story – no, these Comics are ditching John Connor and Sarah Connor and heading straight into an anthology, each issue bringing us a different Terminator on the loose with fresh faces and terrifying tales. While this sounds pretty different, Shalvey assures us the classic Terminator feel is alive and well. In fact, he thinks the human connection at the heart of the series is exactly what keeps the franchise strong.
When it comes down to it, the original Terminator film wasn't just about a killer robot. It was about Sarah and Kyle, their crazy adventure through time, and the undeniable spark that ignited between them in the face of unimaginable danger. It's a reminder that even in a world dominated by machines, humanity can find its way back to love and resilience. And that's exactly what Declan Shalvey plans to carry through into the new comic series.
Get ready to feel that familiar chill down your spine because this new series will be making a big emphasis on horror – which is definitely what the Terminator franchise needs. Think of it this way: the original Terminator films were terrifying! There's something really awesome about a series that can actually give us the spooky Terminator experience we deserve!
Worried that Shalvey doesn't get what makes a truly great Terminator? Relax, because his previous work shows he's got the experience to handle some sci-fi horror – specifically with Alien! Declan was already the brains behind 20th Century Studios' Alien Vol. 3-4, which is how we got introduced to a new species of those creepy Xenomorphs in the Alien mythos!
This interview proves Declan Shalvey definitely knows what he's doing when it comes to the Terminator series, especially since he nails what makes a great Terminator story – focusing on that awesome human connection that's the heart of the whole thing.
Get your calendars ready because "The Terminator #1" is coming to shelves on October 2024 courtesy of Dynamite Entertainment! This is the return of the scary Terminator you’ve been waiting for, combined with an emphasis on those compelling human stories that we all love.
Prepare for a totally thrilling and unique experience as Declan Shalvey breathes new life into the Terminator franchise, embracing both its sci-fi horror elements and its amazing themes of human resilience. If you're looking for a sci-fi horror story with heart, the new Terminator comic is going to be a hit. Make sure you add it to your "Must-Read" list because you don't want to miss this one!
