Kyle Reese

Kyle Reese is a human resistance fighter from the Terminator franchise, best known as the soldier sent back through time to protect Sarah Connor — and the man who becomes John Connor's father. This Malibu Comics series places him within the T2 timeline alongside John Connor, Sarah Connor, the T-800, and the T-1000.

Kyle Reese steps onto the comics page in 1995's T2: Cybernetic Dawn #1 — a Malibu Comics launch from the creative team of Mark Paniccia, Dan Abnett, and Rod Whigham that dropped him into the thick of the Terminator 2 universe alongside John Connor, Sarah Connor, and the iconic T-800 and T-1000. Rooted in the Copper/Modern Age, his comics presence spans a surprisingly long arc from 1995 all the way to 2021, surfacing across titles like T2: Nuclear Twilight and Terminator 2: Judgment Day. With only seven catalogued appearances, he's a rare find for collectors who want every corner of the T2 comics mythology covered — a character whose very presence on a cover signals serious franchise depth.
