Terminator: Salvation Movie Prequel #1

Nick Runge's cover art puts you face-to-face with a T-800 endoskeleton — its red glowing eyes and gleaming chrome skull looming large against a turbulent, fire-lit sky, surrounded by cascading machine code that reinforces the cold, calculating menace of Skynet's war on humanity. This is IDW's official movie prequel to Terminator Salvation, and issue #1 kicks off "Sand in the Gears Part 1," with writer Dara Naraghi and artist Alan Robinson setting the stage for the post-apocalyptic resistance. A confident, atmospheric opening chapter for fans eager to dive deeper into the world of the 2009 film.
