Black Hops: U.S.A.-*-G.I.

In the 2020s, Iconic Comics launched Black Hops: U.S.A.--G.I., a taut three-issue miniseries by writer Mark Pellegrini and artist Timothy Lim. The series reimagines the classic war comic through a modern lens, focusing on a squad of elite African American soldiers during World War II. Pellegrini’s gritty scripting and Lim’s visceral artwork ground the story in both historical authenticity and pulse-pounding action, exploring themes of courage and identity on the front lines. It stands as a sharp, focused addition to the war-comics genre, honoring unsung heroes with a lean, powerful narrative.
