Didja Notice?

 

The rifle held by Aurora on the cover of this issue looks rather like a variant of the M41A Pulse Rifle from James Cameron's 1986 film Aliens! The M41A is also listed as one of the weapons options for the Terminatrix in 2003's Rise of the Machines!

 

On page 7, one of the Resistance soldiers calls Patch amigo. Amigo is Spanish for "friend". 

 

The snake that bites Jean on page 15 is likely a timber rattlesnake based on the color patterns, though we don't see the tail to see its rattle.

As has been the case with issues of the regular Terminator comic book series from NOW, the Terminators dispatched by Skynet on page 21 are all wearing sunglasses.

 

On page 21, the Thunder Mountain complex is shown to be a NORAD base. There is no known NORAD base in Thunder Mountain, Nevada.

 

On page 22, Patch says, "Si." This is Spanish for "yes".
