Zack Whedon Reveals New TERMINATOR Series for Dark Horse – Techland – Time.com
Great news Terminator and Dr. Horrible fans! Zach Whedon, one of the writers behind the fabulous super-villain-origin-story-musical Dr. Horrible’s Sing Along Blog, and its comic book incarnations, will be penning a new Terminator comic book series for Dark Horse. Here is a snippet from his reveal on Techland.com:
I am currently working on a six issue Terminator series for Dark Horse. I just turned in the first script and I’m very excited about it. I love Terminator. I think that movie is so good. Holy Toledo is it good. Now I get to play in that universe and make up Terminator stories of my own that people will get to read. I am not a big-time, famous dude and yet now I am choreographing action sequences set in a post-apocalyptic future overrun by evil cybernetic organisms hell bent on destroying the human race. How is that possible?! I’ll answer your question, Made-Up Person. It’s possible because in comics it doesn’t cost 150 million dollars to tell that story. They can put an idiot like me in charge!

I have only one question: how soon can I purchase a copy? I’m completely sold.
i didn’t know there were even comic books for dr horrible.
I have linked to at least three on my blog in the past year – for shame, Francesca! The Captain Hammer, Moist, and Penny origin story comics were all online previously. The first print one came out today, though, and I hope to purchase it soon.
Here’s a link to Penny’s story, “Penny, Keep Your Head Up”: http://www.myspace.com/darkhorsepresents?issuenum=23&storynum=1
Dr. Horrible’s henchman Moist’s origin story: “Moist, Humidity Rising”: http://www.myspace.com/darkhorsepresents?issuenum=17&storynum=1
And of course my favorite, “Captain Hammer: Be Like Me”: http://myspace.com/darkhorsepresents?issuenu=12&storynum=2
I thought I had read a Dr. Horrible childhood one online too, but I can’t find that one – maybe it was just a preview.
For those interested, here is the link to the Dr. Horrible one shot, in print, which was released today: http://www.darkhorse.com/Search/Dr.+Horrible
