Foreskin Man is a comic book created by Matthew Hess to protest against circumcision. The comic centers on Foreskin Man, a superhero who saves babies from being circumcised and fights their would-be circumcisers.
Foreskin Man was created by Matthew Hess, the author of a proposed bill to ban medically unnecessary circumcisions of minors, during a 2010–2011 campaign to ban this procedure in San Francisco. The comic received criticism from advocates on both sides of the circumcision debate for its alleged use of anti-Semitic imagery.
