Significant voices in the comic book industry have called on Marvel Comics to retire The Punisher character. They feel it has become corrupted due to its logo’s use in last week’s United States Capitol Building riots.
Several groups have used the iconic skull logo over the years, but seeing it on rioters’ shirts at the Capitol pushed some on social media over the edge.
Some Twitter users call for Marvel to be firmer on copyright infringements, while others call for Frank Castle‘s retirement from the Marvel universe, stating the concept behind him is “corrupted”.
