Just in case anyone here hasn't heard of it, the recent comic (re?)adaptation of this story, Superman Smashes the Klan by Gene Luen Yang and Gurihiru, is very good.

Is that the one where he hucks the cross into low earth orbit?

Does the story acknowledge that a Jewish guy vandalizing a cross may be controversial? ;-)
