About this listen
DC has canceled its new Red Hood comic series shortly after its first issue was released on September 10, 2025.[1] This decision followed controversial Bluesky posts by the series writer, Gretchen Felker-Martin, regarding the shooting death of conservative figure Charlie Kirk.[1] In her posts, Felker-Martin made comments such as "Thoughts and prayers, you Nazi b**ch" and "Hope the bullet's okay after touching Charlie Kirk," leading to the suspension of her Bluesky account.[1] DC Comics stated that "Posts or public comments that can be viewed as promoting hostility or violence are inconsistent with DC's standards of conduct."[1] While Felker-Martin's statements were a factor, a report by The Hollywood Reporter suggests other unconfirmed circumstances contributed to the cancellation.
