James O'Barr
After his discharge from the Marines, O'Barr returned to Detroit, where he continued to paint and illustrate while working a day job at an auto body shop.[11] He also announced his work on a comic about the Korean War, centered on the efforts of three U.S. Marine guncrews to hold Fox Hill during the Battle of Chosin Reservoir, with a different artist drawing each gun crew.[13] Although previously opposed to the project, in an October 2014 interview, speaking of his involvement, O'Barr discussed the approach to the adaptation and efforts being made to respect the original film.[12] Later, in November 2014, O'Barr appeared at the Wizard World Tulsa Comic Con and stated that he was co-writing the script with screenwriter Cliff Dorfman.[14] After a long period in development hell, a reboot film would be released in 2024 starring Bill Skarsgård, though O'Barr is only credited in reference to the original comic.
