first Now Comics series, which appeared in Rust #12, August 1988.

7.2.1 "The Terminator"
----------------------
Issues issues #1-17 (1988?). "It's after the first Terminator film, set in
the
future with the focus on John Conner's [sic] battle with Skynet. This movie
tie-in doesn't follow the film's direction at all, and as a comic has a lame
story with so-so art." [from "Hero Illustrated" #6] This series has been
criticized for its stylized, "cartoony" art.

7.2.2 "The Terminator: The Burning Earth"
-----------------------------------------
Issues #1-5 (1990). Written by Ron Fortier, fully painted art by Alex Ross
(of "Marvels" fame). In 2041, John Connor and the human resistance race to
stop Skynet from using its nuclear stockpile to finally annihilate the human
race.
