Biotechnician Elise Fong is destined to discover a vital weapon against the Terminators, and Skynet has no intention of waiting until she does! Targeted for actions in her future, Fongs only hope in the present is the ex-CIA operative tasked with kidnapping her. But can even CIA training stop a T-800?
Ever since the release of the Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines movie, I had been down on the franchise. It seemed nothing could capture the energy or the spirit of the first two films, comics included. Recently though, Dark Horse Comics has begun to change that decline with its release of Terminator Salvation: The Final Battle and now with this side story mini. Ground that was lost has been regained and I for one am squarely back on board to see where things will go from here. Bring it on guys. Bring it on. Read Full Review
This second Terminator series from Dark Horse Comics is great. To make a bad paraphrase, “Read this book if you want to live.” Read Full Review
Terminator: Enemy of My Enemy #2 is a solid entry in the series revealing why Dr. Fong would be important to so many people and as a result a target of Skynet as well as a mysterious client wanting her delivered safely. The fact that this is done almost immediately makes the action this time around more enjoyable, and with the agency getting involved it makes for even better moments. The story developments are intriguing and there appear to be a lot of machinations going on behind the scenes, and for some time, so if the next issue capitalizes on that and Greene being an interesting character, this series would definitely move up in my book.

The Terminator: Enemy of My Enemy #2 is another solid entry that entertains as long as you don't dissect the details of its burgeoning plot. With a strong creative team at its back this comic book stays on target and earns a recommendation from me. Read Full Review

Credit where it's due The Terminator Enemy of My Enemy #2 was an improvement working to solve a lot of things I've complained about in the past but as I've probably mentioned before I'm just not sure we really need to see a rehash of "unstoppable dude tries to kill person" that's a story we've all seen overdone well before this comic. It's not quite the Terminator greatest hits real of Terminator Salvation: The Final Battle but that's only because there's so little variation beyond the original story here to the point where what this feels like more than anything else is the comic version of lazy sampling, it's Terminator meets Whatcha Say, not recommended.
