"Redcoat mixes history and the unknown for a tantalizing start." —AIPT Immortal. Mercenary. Kind of a tool. Meet Simon Pure, the newest UNNAMED hero, created by comic all-stars Geoff Johns and Bryan Hitch.

Since that fateful day, Simon has led a life of adventure and avarice, rubbing elbows (and sometimes fists) with many of history’s most renowned figures including Benedict Arnold, Albert Einstein, Annie Oakley and many more. But what are the true origins and extents of Simon’s power and the mysterious cult behind them? And how has it secretly shaped America and the world? Simon’s on a quest to find out!

Dies ist die Letzte Krise! Das Gewebe des DC-Universums wird vom Angriff Darkseids zersetzt, und als die Helden den Überfall der bösen Mächte bemerken, ist es schon viel zu spät. Was von der Realität noch übrig ist, wird unterworfen, gleichgeschaltet und versklavt. Doch noch besteht Hoffnung, dank eines aus dem Jenseits zurückgekehrten, blitzschnellen Helden, eines besiegt scheinenden Dunkler Ritters, der aber immer ein Ass im Ärmel hat, und eines Stählernen, der eine Reise an die Grenzen der Wahrnehmung unternehmen muss, um die Mächte des Guten zu mobilisieren!
