Zack Whedon to write new six-issue Terminator comic for Dark Horse

Dark Horse Comics announces a new Terminator series, debuting in March 2010. Written by Zack Whedon (of Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog fame), the six-issue series will follow Kyle Reese. The six-issue series will be comprised of two three-issue story arcs, drawn by Andy MacDonald (NYC Mech, Punisher War Journal) with covers by Massimo Carnevale (Y: The Last Man).

"In 2029, Kyle Reese will be sent to 1984 to stop a T-800 from killing the mother of the resistance, Sarah Conner. But before his future son will send him back in time, Kyle Reese was simply another survivor in a desolate future.

"In a world wrought with Hunter Killer Drones, T-600s, T-800s, H-K's and a host of other terrifying technology, a small band of friends must find a way to keep the Resistance breathing amidst an eviscerated landscape devoid of nearly all life. Kyle Reese, the father of the future, leads these rebels with only the slightest promise of peace and the most basic of mortal codes—never give up."

Whedon said "It's an honor to be a part of the on-going Terminator saga, and to have the talents of Andy MacDonald and Massimo Carnevale helping me in bringing this story to life."
