DC Comics has been heavily criticized for removing an image advertising its new Batman comic on social media last week after some said it appeared to show support for the ongoing protests in Hong Kong.
The image, uploaded on social media to promote the forthcoming Batman comic titled “Dark Knight Returns: The Golden Child,” due to be released on Dec. 11, depicted the iconic fictional hero Batman poised to throw a flaming Molotov cocktail in front of the slogan, “The future is young.”
