The short answer is a bad-ass. The longer answer is a bad-ass from the future who single-handedly stood up to an ‘unstoppable’ machine to protect the future of mankind and the woman he loved. That whole ‘woman he loved’ thing is a little weird, because if you think about it, according to whatever Terminator based timeline you want to follow Sarah Connor died of cancer either before Kyle was born or when he was a little kid. Ahh, time travel, how many crazy situations you can make.
Anyway, Zack Whedon, younger brother of ‘nerd-god’ Joss Whedon, is writing a 3-part series for Dark Horse with Kyle Reese as its protagonist. It’s going to be called simply “The Terminator” and will be about Kyle Reese’s life in the weeks leading up to him being sent back in time by John Connor.
The series will be released starting at the end of March, but you can find some preview pages on CBR here.
What happens next?! I’m really looking forward to this. I also like how Kyle looks more like Michale Biehn (above pic) than Anton Yelchin. Yelchin can be Chekov in Star Trek, but Kyle Reese? No, thank you.
