Transformers Vs. The Terminator #2 is a basic story of Autobots Vs. Decepticons. The inclusion of The Terminator feels more like just a little wrinkle in that fight as the Terminator here doesn't feel like the T-800 at all. Read Full Review

Fans of the shape-changing robots will surely appreciate the campy carnage that one would expect from the series, but the involvement of Terminator and its mythology is tenuous, at best, and makes for a dense experience that doesn't entirely feel worth investing yourself in. Read Full Review

Transformers V Terminator #1 was an odd comic. It wasn't great but there were enough interesting concepts introduced that it piqued my interest and forced me to ask the question; How The Fuck is a Terminator supposed to beat a Transformer? This issue makes the case that the speed, durability, mobility, and ingenuity of the T-800 goes a long way. The Terminator we're following does a much better job against the Decepticons than I expected. We can now make a reasonable argument that a gang of Terminators could give the Transformer's serious problems. That's not even accounting for Skynet's later upgrades like the T-1000. After a brief and batshit crazy skirmish between the T-800, Megatron, Starscream, and Shockwave. Once the Autobots ge t involved the Decepticon's are forced to retreat. The comic runs down the timeline of events that led to the Terminators return to 1984. After a couple of tense exchanges, the characters decide to team up along with Sarah Conner. The comic is insane but I had a lot of fun reading it. Seeing a Terminator run circles around Decepticons was hilarious because the entire exchange subverts obvious expectations. Aside from the action, the comic is a pretty shallow experience. The art is a little better this time around and the writing while simple works. It's not a title that will move the industry but Transformers Vs. The Terminator is fun and sometimes that's enough. more

An improvement thanks to the Transformers taking up most of the spotlight, but the terminator is still extremely out of character. The only reason the one in T2 makes one-liners is because he is taught to.
