Terminator Sector War #4

The four-issue Terminator: Sector War miniseries from Dark Horse reaches its conclusion here, with a cover by Robert Sammelin that perfectly captures the dread at the heart of the story. A lone figure — gun drawn, standing firm in a graffiti-tagged subway car — is dwarfed by the looming, red-eyed endoskeleton skull reflected behind them, while a mechanical arm intrudes from the right edge of the frame, closing the trap. Brian Wood and Jeff Stokely's 2019 series goes out on this tense, atmospheric image that makes the odds feel about as grim as they get.
