History

American Civil War[]

Abraham's election that November pushed several Southern states to secede by the time of his inauguration in March 1861, and the Civil War began barely a month later. Contrary to expectations, Abraham proved to be a shrewd military strategist and a savvy leader during what became the costliest conflict ever fought on American soil. Abraham's Emancipation Proclamation, issued in 1863, freed all slaves in the rebellious states and paved the way for slavery's eventual abolition, while Abraham's Gettysburg Address later that year stands as one of the most famous and influential pieces of oratory in American history.[2]

The Slave of Souls encountered Lincoln during his long life.[3]

Spider-Man witnessed Abraham when he was travelling through time on the Time Platform.[4] Spider-Man then flew over Abraham during a speech when he was sent hurling through time.[4]

Doctor Yesterday's tampering with time caused Abraham to appear in the present, greeting Michael Jeffries and Mike Peterson before returning to his own time.[5]

Following the war the Demon Nightmare gave Lincoln nightmares for seven months, taking him to the graves of the men he sent to their death during the American Civil War.[6]
