COMICS: JMS To Pen TERMINATOR: SALVATION Follow-Up, TERMINATOR: THE FINAL BATTLE
While the next Terminator movie is set to be a reboot, J. Michael Straczynski (Amazing Spider-Man) and Pete Woods (Justice League of America's Vibe) will team-up for a Dark Horse series that continues to explore John Connor's battle with Skynet after the events of Terminator: Salvation. Check it out!
"The story that I've always wanted to see visualized, and that I think other fans of the movies have eagerly anticipated, is the battle that set all of the movies into motion: the assault on Skynet, the Terminators going through and what happens afterward on both sides of the timeline. So the events weave in and out of the tapestry of the Terminator, showing what we know or what we think we know, then turning the camera around to show us that what we thought we knew may not be exactly what happens. The only timeline in which you could set that story would be after "Salvation. First and foremost, I think it's the world that Jim created so magnificently, the history and the whole mythology/future history of the thing. That's why so much has been done with it -- there are just so many points of view to explore, so many periods where you can dive in and out of the story. The characters are all interesting and compelling in their own rights, but I think it's that world that is the real star of the thing."
