Superman Versus The Terminator: Death To The Future
(Graphic Novel with art by Steve Pugh and Mike Perkins)
There's nothing particularly clever about the premise of this book. Sarah and John Connor, on the run from the
Terminators, enter Metropolis and fall under the protection of Superman. Then, by an unlikely twist of fate, Superman
is pulled into the future where he joins an aging Man of Steel in fighting Skynet's forces. Back in the present day
Supergirl and Superboy are left to battle the Terminators there. Basically this book is about the Super-trio mixing
it up with a bunch of robots, with which there's nothing wrong per se. However, I couldn't help but feel that something
more could've been done with such a major crossover. Plus there's the fact that I've never liked Superman anyway (there's
no edge to him, he's too much the perfect All-American Ideal to be accessible). The concept of having Superman's
enemy The Cyborg form an alliance with the Terminators was a nice touch, but just not enough to make this book worthwhile.

If you liked Grant:
Then you may well enjoy Mark Shultz's 'Aliens Versus Predator Versus The Terminator'.
