Declan Shalvey’s Terminator series ends with issue #10, when a calculated attack on the Machine goes disastrously wrong.
Shalvey’s Terminator comics have been hit and miss throughout this series, with the odd short story that doesn’t make much sense, and a fairly satisfying semi-long story, and they’ve done a great job of returning the T-800 to the ruthless, and more importantly terrifying, killer we first knew.
This final issue pulls off similar tricks as the rest of the series. That means it feels like a standalone story until the last beat, at which point it becomes clear why we’re just passengers observing this particular mission.
May I? It certainly comes together very well in the end, but I have to say that up until then I was baffled that this story was chosen for the final issue.
Let’s hope Shalvey’s newly launched limited series (The Terminator: Metal) is a bit more focused and more consistent in pacing than this somewhat variable 10-issue series.
