Frontline Combat

Harvey Kurtzman and Wally Wood anchored this 15-issue Gemstone series, which revived the gritty, human-scale war comics of the 1950s. With artists John Severin and Jack Davis bringing visceral, unglamorous battlefields to life, Frontline Combat (1995–1999) stands as a late-career tribute to the EC Comics tradition—unflinching, anti-jingoistic, and focused on the soldier’s experience rather than heroics.
