The Terminator #4

The fourth and final chapter of this 1998 Dark Horse series closes out with a cover that means business: Steve Pugh renders a battle-worn Terminator endoskeleton striding through a fiery, smoke-choked landscape, weapons blazing from both hands against a backdrop of explosive destruction. The bold "Cyborg Showdown!" tagline perfectly sets the tone for what this concluding installment is promising. Alan Grant and Steve Pugh bring their run to a head with imagery that's all chrome skull and relentless forward momentum — a satisfying visual note on which to end a series.
