DC Comics Keep Rafael Grampa's Cover on Dark Knight Returns Despite Chinese Protests
Despite international news reports, DC Comics has not pulled a Rafael Grampa cover to his upcoming Dark Knight Returns: The Golden Child comic book, written by Frank Miller. All they have done is deleted a tweet using the image to promote the upcoming comic.
There were reactions on Chinese social media after the cover image was used with the lettering "The future is young" with Carrie Kelly as Batwoman throwing a Molotov cocktail. Batwoman's black costume and mask and the colour of gold have been used by Hong Komg activists. However, according to the Chinese state-run media outlet Global Times, internet users interpreted this as support for the protests in Hong Kong over reducing autonomy in the country. And although DC Comics pulled the image from their social media, Grampá posted it, then described the controversy as surreal.
