9. Superman: A Nation Divided
…fought in the Civil War?”
A Nation Divided is actually a pretty fun story for how short it is. In the tale, Private Atticus Kent of the Union Army is hit with a cannonball. He then discovers that he’s super powerful, and just full-stop charges into Confederate troops and knocks ‘em down like bowling pins.
He is then deployed by General Grant and President Lincoln as an agent of freedom. PS: The fact that the S on his chest is now the center of the word USA written across his pectorals is kinda awesome.
But Atticus winds up doing more damage to the Confederates than Sherman’s march to the sea, and forces Robert E. Lee to surrender. He also stops the assassination of Lincoln before setting out to become a cowboy in the American West.
Not gonna lie, this is mostly on here because it is ridiculously satisfying to watch Superman beat up Confederate soldiers by the dozens.
SO SATISFYING.
