DC Comics Artist Mick Gray Apologizes For Early Support Of Al Franken Over Sexual Misconduct Allegations Yet Challenges Democrats? Plus Comments On Fired DC Exec Editor Eddie Berganza!

News, Top Story

We’ve been following DC Comics artist Mick Gray’s online views on Minnesota Democratic Senator Al Franken and the alleged sexual misconduct allegations against him. You can read all of those stories here.

Last week after Franken promised to resign from the Senate, Mick Gray apologized for his earlier support of Franken and, early on, victim blaming or victim denying of first accuser Leeann Tweeden.

Gray apologizes unequivocally.

He also insists he wasn’t aware of fired DC Comics executive editor Eddie Berganza’s alleged harassment either…

…after working with for 25 years.

Then, to muddy his earlier apology concerning Franken, Gray shares a post that calls on the Democratic Senators who called for Franken to resign to do the same thing concerning President Trump who has also had sexual misconduct allegations leveled at him.

That last post clearly signals that while Gray is probably genuinely sorry about his earlier Franken support he’s still displeased with Democrats for essentially calling out Franken and forcing him to resign.
