War Action #5

In "Grenade Burst," Sgt. Lucas faces a harrowing test of duty and brotherhood when his younger brother, Danny, arrives as a replacement soldier—just days after learning of their mother’s death. With emotional weight pressing hard, Lucas must keep his unit sharp and focused, even as he struggles to shield Danny from the truth. When Danny is wounded in a fierce ambush, Lucas makes a desperate call to save him, stepping into the line of fire with no thought for his own survival. The story, drawn with grit and precision by Jerry Grandenetti and inked by Art Peddy and Bernard Sachs, captures the raw tension of war through the eyes of a man torn between command and family. Sol Brodsky’s intense cover art perfectly mirrors the issue’s emotional and physical stakes.
