Does it get much cornier than a character who looks like an old propaganda poster and is powered by the spirit of America? “Uncle Sam & the Freedom Fighters” by Justin Gray, Jimmy Palmiotti, and Daniel Acuña cheezes it up, makes us laugh, and still finds time to make a few sociopolitical statements.

IT’S TIME FOR AMERICAAAA!!! We start our uberpatriotic series with the living legend, Captain America. Roger Stern and John Byrne’s work with the hero is collected in “War & Remembrance” from 1980. It’s an excellent mixture of well-executed campiness and complexity, supported by some of the most consistent, well-drawn art of its time.
