Frontline Combat

Frontline Combat was a bi-monthly war comic edited by Harvey Kurtzman for the Bill Gaines' line of EC Comics. The first issue was cover-dated July/August, 1951. Over a three-year span, the title ran for 15 issues, ending with the January, 1954 issue due to a drop in sales after the end of the Korean War.

It was a companion comic to Kurtzman's Two-Fisted Tales, and stories Kurtzman wrote for both books often displayed an anti-war attitude. Artists who contributed were Kurtzman, John Severin, Jack Davis, Wally Wood, Alex Toth, George Evans, Ric Estrada, Joe Kubert, Will Elder and Russ Heath.
