Terminator

In the wake of the blockbuster film franchise, Terminator (1991–1992) arrived from Zenda Comics as a five-issue miniseries that expanded the saga of humanity's war against Skynet. This self-contained story, written and drawn by its primary creative team, dove deeper into the grim future of the resistance, offering a gritty, standalone chapter that captured the tone of the movies while forging its own path. Though short-lived, it remains a notable early example of a licensed comic that treated its source material with serious, cinematic ambition.
