Kelvin Childs, Comic Book Resources; American Girl Walks Back Threat to Sue 'Karen' Doll Parody Meme

walked back its previous assertion that it would take legal action

company said, "American Girl has no intention of censoring this parody
meme and anything shared to the contrary was in error. We apologize for
any misunderstanding.""
