Skynet puts humanity on the naughty list with The Terminator: Santa Claus is Coming to Town

September 18, 2025 by Gary Collinson

The Terminator franchise is set to get festive this December as Dynamite Entertainment presents a terrifying vision of Christmas post-Judgment Day with the one-shot special The Terminator: Santa Claus is Coming to Town.

Humanity is on the naughty list! In the war-torn apocalyptic future conquered by the forces of Skynet, Christmas Eve is far from festive. Yet even in the crumbling remains of civilization, with rubble and death around every corner, a scant few surviving elders of the Resistance carry the torch for the Christmas spirit. In between drone attacks, the younger members of the movement are eager to hear these heart-warming fables of Christmases past.

To these youngest in the vigilantly surviving human race, the stories of the jolly old man in his ruby-red robes who infiltrated the homes of everyone across the globe are especially intriguing.

The Terminator: Santa Claus is Coming to Town is coming in December 2025.
