* A villainous one in ''In at the Death'': Clarence Potter and a team of Confederate commandos nuke Philadelphia. They didn't fly a plane over there; oh no.

* Cassius [[KarmicDeath shooting Jake Featherston]].
* General Custer catching a bomb thrown into his car, and throwing it back.
* Louis Armstrong and his band stealing a military jeep and breaking across the border to deliver proof of the Confederate death camps to the US government.
* Frederick Douglass's career in ''How Few Remain'', where he proceeds to outmaneuver Confederate generals and Northern racists.
* Custer organizing and actually managing to win the Barrel Roll Offensive in ''Breakthroughs.''
