About the series
A single-issue Marvel comic from 2005, Combat Zone: True Tales of GIs in Iraq offers a stark, non-fiction look at the experiences of American soldiers during the Iraq War. Written by Karl Zinsmeister, a journalist who embedded with troops, and illustrated by veteran DC and Marvel artist Dan Jurgens, the issue aims to bring a grounded, firsthand perspective to the superhero publisher's catalog. It stands as a notable, sober departure from Marvel's usual fantasy fare, attempting to document contemporary military life with unflinching realism.
