The Terminator: The Dark Years #3

Third issue of this four-part Dark Horse series delivers a genuinely striking image from cover artist Jae Lee: a battle-scarred Terminator endoskeleton crouches atop a crumbling stone sculpture, massive weapon trained on a burning cityscape dominated by a flame-engulfed skyscraper — the whole scene drenched in an infernal orange glow that perfectly captures the subtitle "The Dark Years." The tagline "In Pursuit" promises relentless mechanical menace as writer Alan Grant and artist Mel Rubi bring their post-apocalyptic vision toward its penultimate chapter. If you've been following this series, issue three's cover alone makes a compelling case that the tension is still very much building.
