I think the "Come with me line" would have worked better as a threat, like "Come with me *cocks gun* if you want to live that is"

The funny part of this story is out of every character in the crossover, the T-800 is the one that did the most damage by destroying the ark and kill every autobot in there. While Megatron and his Decepticons couldn't even do that in the beginning of this story

Without the survivors there are only what less than 10 cybertronians left? And only three decepticons? I think it's prefefectly reasonable that they decided to stop fighting.

I think Shockwave would have been able to defeat Skynet. His intelligent, logical mind would have been enough to completely destroy/overwrite Skynet’s program. Turning the entire network of machines and the Terminators into extensions of Shockwave. Starscream could do the same. He was able to wield the power of the Underbase and other cosmic powers throughout the franchise. His ghost has the ability to take over other Cybertronians, even Skynet would be vulnerable to his Spark. There’s also Bombshell’s cerebro shells and expertise with reprogramming. Teletran 1. Wheeljack’s various inventions like the Immobilizer. Not related but that should be Arcee’s car mode. I hate the constant attempt to make the 80s futuristic one work as a toy. It does not work as a toy.

The joke was the Terminator needed to kill Megatron to make him into skynet to guarantee his own future

Megatron attempting to kill an unconscious Prime reminds me of the Beast Wars season 2 finale. How this ends makes one wonder what other timelines are going to be created? So many references in each issue is amazing. I enjoyed your narration, keep up the good work!

Good question if John Connors resistance doesn't exist in this universe why did the Terminator bother to get Sarah Connor

I feel like the line "come with me if you want to live" could still work. It's basically him saying "help me save the world if you don't want to die."

The “come with me if you want to live” line still works, it’s just a threat here instead of an offer

Bro not even a minute into the video and they've killed Jazz AGAIN. This abuse has to stop 😭😭😭

I kinda like Skynet being the good guys in this scenario, perhaps "good guys'' might not be the right word but since The Human Resistance might not be a thing in this timeline, Skynet could have been the answer to fight The Decepticons in the first place

Sky net as the resistance is def a interesting concept

How you'd splice the lores together has me scratching my head, but I can't deny the possibilities of powerful scenes. The Decepticons being disgusted with Skynet as a barely sentient automaton that can't finish what it started with mankind's weapons? The Autobots at first terrifying human survivors as more machines, only to become a beacon of hope in the darkest days? The Decepticons finding even themselves disgusted with the single minded extermination of those who should be minimal threat? Or perhaps they want to eliminate the sparkless Skynet mainly for being competition? Skynet trying to understand WTF is happening? Human survivors focusing fire on an Autobot, only for the Autobot to shoot the Terminator troopers who were about to kill the human survivors, blindsiding Skynet's cannon fodder in the process. There are so many scene-arios that could make for some great panels. They might not make sense in context, but those panels in a vacuum would be cool as heck. Now to start the video and see how/what they do.

"A Single T-800 ends up being this Crossover's MVP..." It would be hilarious if i saw Linkara's critique of Superman VS Terminator before getting into this one.

I wonder why Dark Horse never did a Robocop vs Predator crossover? Seems like a really obvious plot device. A predator shows up in futuristic Detroit similar to what happened in PREDATOR 2 and is hunting and killing people (lots of armed people in a city like this) and Robocop must stop him. Its such an easy plot device compared to Robocop vs Terminator or Alien vs Predator vs Terminator or some of the other crazy crossovers.

At first I wasn't sure so I brushed it aside. But now I'm certain. This was written by a G1 fan, he's peppering references all over the place. "Nothing's [bolded] going to stand in my way!" - reference to Kick Axe/Spectre General song in TF:TM. "Now all we need is a little energon, and a lotta luck." - a line spoken by Optimus Prime early in TF:TM. "You're old -- Yesterday's model. Ready for the scrap heap." - a line spoken by Optimus Prime in the first 3-parter episodes of G1's S1.

Could the galactic Empire in Star Wars survive a war against Transformers or would the death star become a new form body to Unicron himself ?

This was a fun crossover I never knew existed thanks a bunch for sharing it I'm going to have to try to add it to my collection

If Skynet isn't fighting against humans, there's no reason to create cyborg infiltrators. Whole thing is pointless.

Optimus prime: one shall stand, one shall fall. Megatron: I'll Crush you wit my fear hands!

I would think that skynet is far inferior to cybertronians and would just be taken over by decepticons

It’s actually a pretty cool concept I’m a fan of both and really like that they actually made the transformers real.

I've been hoping for a while now that this comic gets a sequel. It really deserves one

Terminator driving optimus prime....love it

I love Arcee's design in this comic, not only is there an awesome alt-mode. But the kibble management is much better than the original G1 design

SKYNET's base is assaulted by some of the most dangerous Decepticons. Oh, and Starscream, too.

I love the concept of the Terminators being the GOOD GUYS the last line of defence that humanity built against the Decpticons. that was an amazing twist also Super Sized Termianators!

This would make a brilliant movie with a few adjustments

The plot armor is strong within Sarah Conner.

Just to blow up the freaking ark is insane. And also Megatron being killed by the terminator by piercing his chest is funny and ridiculous.

Super Robot Wars styled crossover RPG featuring these franchises: Transformers Terminator Robocop Gen:Lock Voltron Power Rangers Pacific Rim Iron Giant Big Guy and Rusty DLC:s: Iron Man Bionicle Hero Factory Robotech Wouldn't that be awesome?! 🤩

Skynet is fighting to survive the Decepticons? Ooooh, that's a twisted idea I didn't expect out of the gate.

we found out about the Cybertron wars and many battles on earth now can the Tranaformers defeat Terminator death machines ? Threepio : " my parts are showing oh how embarrassing but how is my performance in this story ? "

Quite interesting crossover! I don't like at all the treacherous destruction of the Ark and some minor, ridiculous, twists, but overall is a fascinating plot, always dreamed of that kind of crossovers, and would love to see others of the kind!

Skynet still will kill humanity after killing a show that sells toys

I've often wondered who would win, the Terminator V a Predator, or Terminator V the Xenomorph

I LOVE IT!!! Thank you for bringing these comics to you tube so all can njoy these stories! do you do GI JOE?

Man even in a world where sarah connor isnt the target the girl just cant catch a break

Wow, I can honestly see why this story was never heard of! This story plot is horrible. Thank you though for taking the time and energy to go through it, I can tell it was difficult 😅

This sounds like it was written by a fan-service hack with no talent for any original storytelling. Hell, the fan-fiction crossover I came up with as a kid made more sense.

Great video! I have a hard copy, but it was cool to see the video. I'd like to see one of the TMNT Ghostbusters crossover

This isn't a cliffhanger ending, its a god damn time loop ending!!!

They should do... - G.I. Joe vs Skynet - Transformers & The War of the Worlds

Pretty sure even one of the Cassetteicons could defeat a Terminator.

I read the whole comic myself. I like the part Starscream find it ironic how lowly Humans were able to create the Terminators. And of course, Megatron’s revival as Skynet. That is epic.

The transformers have been fighting for millions of years so there combat experiences are going to greatly outmatch most opponents they come across

Cybertron is Decepticons & Earth is SKYNET.

Very nice art-work and the colors, that deserves a good credit itself. But story-wise it did not work for me.

9:36 Wow, so Sarah Connor figures out the symbols of the Cybertronian factions which took the dimwitted fleshbags years to even begin to grasp?!? 18:26 Indeed, who's going to tell her?!? LMAO Dark Horse Comics are EFFING GENIOUSES!

Everyone is gucci until skynet mass produces the T-Meg as a last resort and recalls the T-Infinity

This might be my new favorite crossover.

Such an epic story tell man yolo I couldn’t help but notice you also had some good beats playing in the background can you please tell me the name of the one you use at the start of the second part ohh ps keep the awesome stuff

the problem is that skynet doesn't take over a dead optimus prime merging the programs and gaining a foothold. I mean if you watch the movies skynet is always looking to evolve and grow.

Please cover the king grimlock storyline

nice video :)

This is my first time seeing your content and you had me subscribed just from the Logo Intro. Mad Respect!

They need to make a movie of this 👍👍👍👌

Yeah the story and ending did seem rushed with some moments that don’t really make sense, but it was a fun and interesting crossover and the art is great i enjoyed it plus the cover art for this comic is sick

Terminator versus Predator! or... Terminator versus Xenomorph! Or... Sarah Connor versus Ellen Ripley! No, no, wait. I've got it! Xenomorph versus Xena!

Reese: "Come me if you wanna live..." Megatron (complete with Targetmaster T500): "Such heroic nonsense."

How is this for a comic book crossover idea? THUNDERCATS vs Aliens and predator. How about a bunch of XENOMORPHS attack Third Earth and the Thundercats are struggling to fight them off and the mutants and mum-ra realize that the giant xenomorph hive could destroy the whole planets ability to be inhabitable which would ultimately also include THEM so the enemies form a temporary truce and join forces with the agreement that they are mortal enemies again as soon as the xenomorphs have been killed off so its the Thundercats, Mutants and Mumra fighting together against the Xenomorph hive but the Xenomorphs are winning, there are just SO DAMNED MANY OF THEM and there are even multiple "king" and "queen" Xenomorphs too. Right when it looks like they will all be killed a big space ship shows up and its the PREDATORS who join forces with the inhabitants of 3rd Earth and together with the help of the preds they manage to finally defeat the Xenomorphs.

This idea has been in my head for years I think it needs a movie and a game but a slightly different story with the terminators and decepticons on the same team

Yeah it seems like the writer was given a bingo card of fan service plot points that somehow had to be joined into a story.

I think sometimes sure the plot holes and silly ness is countered by " OMG fan service and look at these cool explosions and omg Sarah Connor being a bamf" sure it's kinda silly but at same time it's terminator with Connor and auto bots vs decacaptions still a fun time lol

Megatron: "I'll be back." Prime: "NEVER!" Starscream: "Wanna bet!"

The context of "come with me if you want to live" here isn't lazy writing, it's satirical. You have a terminator, smiling, giving the line of the hero in the movies, but in this context, to Sarah, he is the hero but more so he is the villain. So, to me, it's funny that he is saying the line, while smiling, because he is saving her from death, by his hands lol. Maybe I'm putting too much thought into but it seemed pretty clever to me.

How about this for a comic book crossover? The original version of BATTLESTAR GALACTICA does finally reach Earth and the version of Earth that they encounter is the post apocalyptic version from TERMINATOR. The human main characters "Colonial Warriors" among them Starbuck and Apollo drawn to look like Richard Hatch and Dirk Benedict join forces with the ragtag group of humans led by John Connor and provide them with the more advanced technology of the colonial fleet which is basically a 2 on the Kardishev scale and teach them how to use it, even how to fly vipers to attack the terminator strongholds and fight the terminator's aerial vehicles. The humans have all but won and there is about to be a joyous event where the surviving humans of the war against the terminators will have a chance to rebuild the world and as bad as it looks the Galactica and the remnants of humanity that fled Caprica from the Cylons will help rebuild the post apocalyptic Earth into a modern paradise when the Cylons show up in their base stars and the war between the colonial fleet and Cylons resume and when the Cylons realize that the terminators are also machines that want to exterminate humans they join forces with them and it becomes a battle where the Cylons and Terminators are one combined army and the colonial fleet and the human resistance led by John Connor are on the other side. John Connor and Admiral Adamma would have great respect for each other each being a battle hardened leader of their respective people.

8:05 - You are assuming that the Transformers haven't changed in the future. He would be scanning them 'now' (in the past) to determine their _current_ weak points. Yes, it would have made sense to scan them before engaging, but maybe he needed more time before the scan was completed. The real issue here is why he didn't just let the Decepticons wipe out the Autobots, since he was there to terminate all Cybertronians.

9:15 maybe he's weave nation certified

Fascinating, thxs for sharing! Cheers!

T-800 Endoskeletons Obay Megatron. Both leaders of SKYNET & Decepticons.

I hate that the terminator was reduced to its endoskeleton so quickly

Terminator vs TF is like Godzilla vs the Jaegers Godzilla being the Transformers. They'd demolish the terminators.

One of the best comics ever

That was epic I wish James Cameron can make his version of this story and film it and put it in theaters.

I thought the Come with me if you want to live line felt more as a threat.

"Soundwave, Skywarp, and Starscream, are all still continuing to have a hard time taking out the Terminator, I just like really having a hard time believing this." Consider G1. They all shoot like SW Stormtrooper defunct clones. And Cybertronian weapons have demonstrated to be mostly...rather weak (depending on the author d'jour). Meanwhile, T-800 that has athletics programming is able to move twice as fast as a normal human. It's like trying to swat a really nimble fly. Also, it's very highly durable. That tritanium-tungsten endo-skeleton can really take a beating and dampens some of the energy/kinetic forces. If it had its plasma rifle weaponry (or one of Cable's guns) it could likely cause some serious damage.

The one thing to notice is the Transformers can't deal with a single T2000 let along an army of them. But as you said a lot of lazy writers just doing what they can to get paid are what we have left writing stories now.

I wonder if he ever notices that the truck the terminator drove into the ship literally was the truck the original Optimus Prime was disguised as.

Re: Ravage Yeah that wouldn't have worked at all. Mild inconvenience is what would occur for Ravage from a point-blank bullet that couldn't even come out of the muzzle since it was pressed against his upper jaw. A jaw which, I'll remind, is made out of a steel-alloy that is strong enough to stop Earth-made armour-piercing tank shells and small energy weapons. Even assuming that that it could cause harm, in the panel where she holds it against Ravage's jaw - the angle at which it is being pressed against it, would cause the bullet to go straight upwards, no where near Ravage's CPU. It would just exit upwards from the jaw and into the air.

This is a good start

blood... it's toooooooooo good. I'm beyond enthralled. Except the fact that NO AUTOBOT could ever be a better engineer, designer nor mechanic than Decepticon as Decepticons posess better tech in every aspect. The Autobots have the writers on their side to write inept and dumb bad guys

Thanks for doing this video. I enjoyed it. I have the same critiques as you but with one extra... I grew up with Transformers. The toys, the cartoon and the comics, and the G1 Autobots did not have Arcee, Grimlock or the other female Autobot. They all came later. So the change in the roster took me out of the story a little. I would've liked to have seen Ironhide and Jazz instead of the ladies.

It wasn't lazy writing. He gave her the choice. Get in the truck, or get got. No witnesses. Seems like he learn tact and pragmatism.

Skynet would wipe the floor with transformers.

Skynet and Shockwave seem like they'd get along, NGL 4:19 The line could work as a threat - It's always been a semi-ambigous statement - but that doesn't really quite jive with the art.

I wonder what the comic book version of studio interferences because that shore happened this time. At least this one didn't mess me up like shattered glass or death of autocracy.

I wonder who would in in a confrontation between the Transformers (both main factions) and The Borg from Star Trek.

The late 90's i found a Fan Transformers site it had all 80 of Marvel's Transformers Comics and the Mini wtories . And G2 12 issues then had some of the 86 Movie unused script scenes that later turned up .This part not sure if it was fan art to it had Jazz with armor on in Vehicle mode he looked Rodimus Prime . Prowl as a kid was may favorite Transformer it had a upgraded Prowl but now Vehicle mode. This is how i found the site there is a rumor in one the 86 Movie scripts Soundwave was going melt some how and i looked way back then. Also the site had a Fan made 4 part Mini series domic that hada Decepticon Civil War . The comic started with Blitzwing , Soundwave, his tapes , Dirge ,Ramjet Thrust going inside Unicron 's head . They find a hidden room that had Megatron , Skywarp, Thundercracker with new bodies . Megatron looked like the G2 toy and Thundercracker & Skywarp also ha updated looking bodies . When part 2 started Megatron & Galavatron started to fight and it was season 1 & 2 some season 3 vs Season 3 & 4 comic 2 to the end of 4 was nothing but fighting how the story end Megatron & Galavatron fighting merged in to one robot . The comic said Megatron was Spilt in two and Galavatron was the most violent parts of Megatron . When Megatron & Galavatron where fighting both merged back in to one Robot . Cyclonus Skywarp & Scourge Thundercracker both merged to. The 3 Incesticons where alive in the battle the Sweeps turned in to the 4 Incesticons that got toys never showed up in the show so there was 7 of them now

Did a T-800 give Megatron a hard time twice, the it was done dose seem like that's how a Terminator would do it, I do wish it was the T-1000 just to see the reactions of the Decepticons and they had a chance to do a cameo of the T-1,000,000,00 instead of T-8000 but what ever!

Terminator vs transformers is really awesome and tons of fun

Megatron looks like he's made out of bionicle

Dark Horse narratives have always had odd story problems. Batman and Superman crossovers with Dark Horse are the same.

I like how he's driving G1 optimus prime

"Come with me if you want to live" does work. Because of the Decepticons when the human race is destroyed. So though it's not directed at her per se like the movies are, it is directed at her species

This is prime "just because you can doesn't mean you should."

One thing; as Starscream gave chase to the T-800, I sort of expected him to say "You won't best me, you primitive Earth robot!" Also, imagine if Kyle Reese was in this comic...

I think a more fair fight is the Iron Giants race vs the Transformers race.

After all of these years waiting for a crossover, I was so disappointed by this story. Why are Skynet and its terminators so... human? It's impossible to believe the author was familiar with the Terminator franchise or its lore.

This sounds cool.
