The Terminator: The Dark Years

In the late '90s, Dark Horse returned to the post-apocalyptic future of the Terminator mythos with this four-issue miniseries. Written by Alan Grant, with art by Mel Rubi and Trevor McCarthy, The Dark Years explores a grim, machine-dominated wasteland where scattered human resistance fighters wage a desperate war. It stands as a focused, character-driven chapter in the franchise's comic legacy, emphasizing the brutal survival struggle rather than time-travel heroics.
