The Four Color Media Monitor

Because if we're going to try and stop the misuse of our favorite comics and their protagonists by the companies that write and publish them, we've got to see what both the printed and online comics news is doing wrong. This blog focuses on both the good and the bad, the newspaper media and the online websites. Unabashedly. Unapologetically. Scanning the media for what's being done right and what's being done wrong.


Fox News recently reported that the far-left LGBT scribe Gretchen Felker-Martin, the man in a dress who got canned by DC for his offensive remarks about murder victim Charlie Kirk, is not showing any signs of being sorry for his incendiary statements on social media. And Fox, unfortunately, is running the risk of minimizing the seriousness of Felker-Martin's behavior too:
DC Comics has canceled its Batman spin-off "Red Hood" after the series’ writer mocked the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, sparking outrage online. Despite the fallout, the writer has since doubled down on her remarks.

The series was canceled by DC Comics after screenshots circulated online of inflammatory social media posts from transgender author Gretchen Felker-Martin making a joke out of the death of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, saying she hoped the bullet was OK after hitting Kirk, and calling him a "Nazi b----."

[...] "Two days ago, I made a glib joke about Kirk’s death. It was irresistible to me," Felker-Martin wrote on her Patreon blog in response to the fallout. "I stand by the sentiment of what I said. Kirk was evil. He can no longer hurt us, even if his cruelty will linger like a bad smell for decades to come."

Felker-Martin added in an interview with The Comics Journal that she had "no regrets" for what she said about Kirk. "I've listened to Charlie Kirk being an overt Nazi for years of my life, and I had no regrets for what I said about him."

Felker-Martin, who has been known for making a stir with her posts on social media, told The Comics Journal that her superiors at DC Comics had also expressed concern about her outspokenness online prior to the Kirk incident. The concern followed media reports exposing Felker-Martin's alleged celebration of the Oct. 7, 2023 Hamas massacre of over 1,000 innocent Israelis.
"Outspokeness"? Now that is such garbage. "Incendiary" and "incitement" would sum it all up far better. This is an example of how even an allegedly conservative news source like Fox has their share of writers who downplay the seriousness of such behavior, which makes them potentially worse than even the Comics Journal. Also note how they follow the PC narrative that if somebody claims to be the opposite sex, they'll use the pronouns expected. Which just makes clear how far even a supposedly right-leaning news company has fallen. It practically suggests they're not very supportive of Kirk either, since he was against this poor example.
Felker-Martin did concede in her interview with The Comics Journal that she exhibited "a moment of poor impulse control" when posting the comments about Kirk.

"I can only put it down to really just a moment of poor impulse control," she said. "Had I thought for another second, of course I would've known [that it would be a problem for DC], and naturally, as soon as I had said it, I did know."

However, in first-hand remarks on her Patreon, Felker-Martin exhibited virtually no regret for her comments.
Well it's clear somebody who's actually a he isn't sorry at all, so the Comics Journal article is hollow as a tin can. One more reason it's to be hoped this far-left agitator's career is over, and nobody with common sense will hire him anymore, for comics writing or anything else. Perhaps Kirk's widow Erika should consider suing Felker-Martin for defamation. And Mrs. Kirk should also call out the comics industry for even considering associating with these ghastly ideologues in the first place. If comics really are an overlooked medium, that's why some left-wing propagandists until now have all but gotten away with their antics, and why it shouldn't be overlooked anymore.
