Desert Storm Journal

In 1991, writer and artist Don Lomax launched Desert Storm Journal for Apple Press, a nine-issue series that offered a gritty, ground-level view of the Gulf War through the eyes of combat journalist Mike "Mack" Moran. Published during and immediately after the conflict, the series stands out for its unflinching, realistic portrayal of modern warfare, blending frontline action with the personal toll on soldiers and civilians. Lomax's detailed, documentary-style storytelling and art give the series a raw authenticity that distinguishes it from more sensationalized war comics of the era.
